Wikipedia is one of the last genuine places on the Internet, and these rat bastards are trying to contaminate that, too

"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.

Ai is useful for sorting datasets amd pulling relevent info in some cases, ie propublica has used it for articles.
Obviously simple sorting for them, case law is too complicated for such sifting of data, it was trained on reddit after all.
And when, not if but when, it makes a mistake by pulling hallucinated info or data then it's going to be you're fault, that's why it's a liability.
The simple stuff it can do, trying to remember how propublica used it, but it was just like sifting through a database and pulling out all mentions of a word.
When you get into giving case law, it's way too complicated for it and it hallucinates.
