"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.

If LLM answers had zero concept they wouldn't work. We are here talking about it because the answers are correct up to a certain point that makes them good enough.
These middleman are also called teachers, when you go to medical school you have many of these, you don't get handled the medical encyclopedia and left on your own.
that's something you are making up, an LLM telling you to inject bleach would be the same as it telling you that 2+2= coconut, it's the wrong answer, if all the answers where wrong we wouldn't be here talking about this tech.
Doctors prescribe you medicines and do surgery on you, an LLM can't do these things, if AI tells you to take a medicine you still have to go to the medic to get these.
The propaganda meme is talking about a ban on AI answers about medicine. LLMs have no authority on medicine, that's something we will be discussing in 20 years.
