Quite apart from all other considerations, my problem with all this is: LLMs are no longer tools assisting us. We are tools assisting them. I don’t want to spend my life as an “LLM output checker”.
How long is that going to even work assuming you can find people willing to do it? Right now it occasionally does, but at what point will the group of people with the skills required to do so have shrunk and their abilities degraded to the point where everything devolves into a blind leading the blind scenario? LLMs have been trained on our code. Now we’re being trained on theirs, and it’s not going to end well.

No, I’d missed that one, so thank you very much for the link. It was - as is typical of Doctorow’s musings - a very good read, which I can wholeheartedly recommend to anyone else who’re interested.

MCP integration, REST API, flexible payments. Book humans for real-world tasks your AI can’t do… every skill you need.

Yeah. I’m done. If anybody needs me, I’ll be over here writing open source code in my spare time without externalizing my cognitive capability. I guess I’ll seek out a new career in public sanitation to pay the rent. At least that way, I’ll know I’m making an unambiguous positive contribution to society.
Holy gracious sakes… Of course… Thank you… thank you… dear katanaquant, from the depths… of my heart…

Thank you, but I do not consider LLM equal to a calculator.
The latter doesn’t normally have any feedback, and has a constant solid system, where you may always expect the result won’t change in time all of a sudden, and predict it. There’s a circuit and read-only memory of its flashed program looped.
None of this is true in the context of the former - LLM. Here, an output may change each iterration due to the nature of LLM algorithms as “self-training”. The constant fear of the algorithm “plausible” mistakes, and it confidence in proving those are correct… is… unbearable…

I am… tired… of getting notifications and with a smile/opportunity/hope… reading that someone calls me a bot/AI/LLM/etc…
Therefore, I am sorry, but welcome to blocked, permanently.But you are
No. You wish you were. You’re on the same page in my book too now.
Lmfao. Defending a KNOWN bot. Oh boy
God I hate it when an article sucks me in with a title about how LLMs are useless trash but then goes on to include shit like this:
I write this as a practitioner, not as a critic. After more than 10 years of professional dev work, I’ve spent the past 6 months integrating LLMs into my daily workflow across multiple projects. LLMs have made it possible for anyone with curiosity and ingenuity to bring their ideas to life quickly, and I really like that!
Maybe the author is trying to preach to the hoodwinked and avoid being summarily dismissed by the AI hype spreaders before they even start writing the article. But surely they’ve already sabotaged any chance at breaking through the brainwashing with the title.
If any of you ever write about how shit LLMs are, please please please don’t feel like you have to dedicate any portion of your article at all to granting them any charity. I assure you, they deserve absolutely none.
Of course… Thank you! Thank you, dear @TootSweet@lemmy.world ! ✨
LLMs are just guessing at what a human would do based off what it’s data says humans did.
