alt Hacker NewsAnybody getting fatigued from these constant gatekeeper articles around LLMs? They are fine, they are getting better and we are seeing wide usage, its making impact, especially on software and software jobs (why I am working 3 remote jobs with it).
It seems the people who use it and see good results are busy doing, and the rest are either just expressing their opinions as facts and trying to tell others what to think and how they are wrong. I pay zero attention to those people they have no skin in the game.

No. In fact the opposite.
I’m happy that people are willing to question things in the face of unbridled optimism. Your comment dismissing the people working on actually figuring out what the models are doing as “not-doers” included.
Some are picturing themselves as intelligent for their quick adoption and rushing ahead, others are picturing them as toddlers running into the street before looking both ways.
I am glad for you at an individual level, but isn't part of this about understanding aggregate effects?
Neither you nor anyone can really know those without talking it out with people, to understand how all corners of the human experience are seeing things play out
If I were to just care if it's working out for me, that's perhaps like a farmer who's got a lot of dry good in storage being like "I'm all good" while not realizing how much trouble they're in if all their neighbors start starving after a drought...
Sounds like the fine-grain experience of being you is settled, but that doesn't say much about the larger coarse-grained experience of being you in society. People need to talk to tell you how that's gonna play out for you
