I think that's a really important distinction. It's a fast moving field as well and right now we're early on. It has a lot of incredible applications that could really help people, so I really dont think it should be written off.

LLMs, like every AI tech before them (you know, the ones that aren't called AI anymore because they actually do useful things and are now called "speech recognition" or "OCR" or "translation software" or "chess engines" or such in accordance with Tessler's Theorem), will wind up in a small ghetto of actual utility (my money is on translation being a big feature, though it will require human checking) once the hype has worn down, the actual cost of running one is tallied and people flee using them en masse as a result. When that day comes, it may actually help people.

That day hasn't come, and it won't come at all while Silly Con Valley techbrodouches keep trying to cram it uncomfortably into each and every one of humanity's collective orifices in a vain attempt to force us to like it.

Right now it's shit and it won't get better until techbrodouches are removed from it.

Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.
