alt Hacker NewsI just thought about it, and honestly, from my surroundings of people aged 12-70s, across multiple continents, I can’t think of anyone who isn’t using some sort of LLM once a week.
I just thought about it, and honestly, from my surroundings of people aged 12-70s, across multiple continents, I can’t think of anyone who isn’t using some sort of LLM once a week.
American software engineer here, and I have only used LLM tools ~3 dozen times: tried at work a few times, and been unimpressed/actively frustrated; a few times to ask questions I would be normally survey blog posts about (social/lifestyle things); and the rest has been generating images with my kids.
But currently, aside from generating "creative media", I'd say I'm pretty much opposed to LLM tools. They have yet to demonstrate any value to me at work or with respect to the areas of research I am interested in, and given the kind of statistical mechanism that they are, I do not believe they are capable of doing so.
