LLMs are a long long way from primetime

[โ€“] Nalivai@lemmy.world 4 points 1 hour ago

By now it's kind of getting clear that fundamentally it's the best version of the thing that we get. This is a primetime.
For some time, there was a legit question of "if we give it enough data, will there be a qualitative jump", and as far as we can see right now, we're way past this jump. Predictive algorithm can form grammatically correct sentences that are related to the context. That's it, that's the jump.
Now a bunch of salespeople are trying to convince us that if there was one jump, there necessarily will be others, while there is no real indication of that.
