You don't get it because for you destination is more important than the journey. And it is fine. Probably. For me and (likely) for OP as well it is the opposite. Result is meaningless without the process. I can't take fruits of my

My problem with LLMs (apart from philosophical aspects and economical impact) is that it would be unlikely for any of us to be able to train something functional locally (toy-like LLMs -- sure, but something really useful -- no). Apart from

I agree with you and have similar thoughts (maybe, unfortunately for me). I personally know people who outsource not just their work, but also their life to LLMs, and reading their exciting comments makes me feel a mix of cringe, fomo and d

GenAI should not exist, all development of it should be ceased immediately. Freed time, resources and brainpower should be invested into development of precision tools which do not require boilerplate to be produced at scale.

That part I understand and it is quite easy to imagine, but that mental model means that novel data, not present in dataset in a semantical sense, can not be mapped to any exact point in that latent space except to just random one, because

I don't think we _really_ know whether brain is statistical machine or not, let alone whatever we call by consciousness, so it's a stretch to say that LLMs do some of the things humans do [internally and/or fundamentally]. Th

Thing that I don't understand about LLMs at all, is that how it is possible to for it to "understand" and reply in hex (or any other encoding), if it is a statistical "machine"? Surely, hex-encoded dialogues is not

I see your point, but consider this - generative AI has shown excellent performance in mapping tasks. I've seen examples where it flawlessly extracts data from markdown format to JSON, so mapping fields should be as nearly as the same?

Cool idea, but isn't this kind of old school? I mean, with all the new AI stuff that can learn and guess what we need to do, isn't the whole record and replay thing a bit behind the times? Wouldn't generative AI solve that?
