Like NFTs before them, tech bros trying to squeeze a technology into use cases that really don't need it.

LLMs are language models. What next, setup Stable Diffusion to do my taxes?

Well Google are already trialing a diffusion based LLM so that wouldn't be too far fetched.

I want to get off Mr. Bones Wild Ride ๐Ÿ˜ญ

That just sounds like... what was it called... Cleverbot? Lol

But can modern ai make some creepypasta? Bet it can't! Clearly cleverbot was superior.

Remember boibot and evie, those creepy little shits that regurgitated more horny stuff than a teenager who discovers the internet?

Yes, but many things can be mapped to "language", let's say a grammar describing state machines, so it can be used to generate control actions.

Transformer models etc. are not only useful for conversational AI and translations.

I'd be fine with the approach as part of research advancing the field, but unfortunately, that's not what we're seeing.
