"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Ignoring everything else that wouldn't work. Your local llm instance, to recommend you new movies, would have to scour the internet to summarize information about them.
Boom, thats the vector of it getting steered towards greatest quarterly revenue.
Yeah that’s true. Search results, movie reviews and blogs definitely can be used to steer it in any direction. You just need to keep the LLM on a very short leash and keep a close eye on its diet. Takes some effort to do this properly.
