I really like Ed but I'm not a fan of his style of anything lol
No, phone trees are deterministic, an LLM is non-deteministic. Voice-navigable phone trees have been around a quarter-century now. Even natural language processing apps like Siri are far more advanced than a voice-navigable phone tree and that is 15 years old.
That's still deterministic, what you are describing has been around far, far longer than llm technology.
That doesn't even make sense, phone trees are deterministic.
OP is describing a phone tree, it's a flow chart at best and have existed long before LLMs.
"Interactive clothes" sounds awesome to me.
a garment made of conductive fibres that track heart rate and breathing and feed that data into an AI algorithm that detects when a person is anxious and triggers a mechanism that causes the garment to tighten and give the feeling of a comforting hug.
Does not.
No, this isn't about AI.
😂 It wasn't until I was finished typing out my comment that I realized I was doing the classic Lemmy thing of just wholly ignoring OP and ranting about something tangential.
I may not be able to control myself but at least I can acknowledge my poor behavior!
I can't help you so I'm going to rant about something not related.
Gramps is great once it's up and running but it's so frustrating that you cant add a person and just add a residence or wedding date or birth. Noooo, you need to create the events and locations first and then create the person and link the events to them.
Which is basically the opposite way humans think about lifetimes. I would kill for a feature of "Create new birth/wedding/etc event" from the person page.
Yes but the LLM is not the thing making the decision to do that on that scale. The people using it are.
I'm going to be a pedant and say that capitalism is not a conscious being capable of free will and therefore cannot abide by a code of ethics BUT individuals choosing to participate in a capitalist system make it much more difficult (impossible) to behave ethically.
He's pretty thoroughly covered how using just the available public information explains the insider deals and how demand for LLMs is not enough to justify the cost of developing at the scale that it is. It's honestly hard to imagine what inside information could possibly worse.
Unless it's something way out of left field like Nvidia chips are made of freeze-dried orphans or that Jeffrey Epstein invented LLMs.
