        I would say it’s a good example of a bad use-case for an LLM; you don’t have sources, and you can’t fact-check anything. Those two are absolutely vital requirements when claiming something as true.

        Aside from that, most generative AI have been trained on vast amounts of data that was never allowed to go into the dataset; copyrighted/IP-righted paintings, articles, comics, and novels have been included against the wishes of the artists/authors. The fact that nothing is being done on a legal system level shows that copyright and IP rights clearly do not apply to American oligarchs, and many of us don’t like that. Most generative AIs also need an absurd amount of power to run and hurt the environment a lot. It sucks to separate paper and plastic waste just to know that there are people blasting through an hour worth of airconditioning just to ask a computer something they could’ve looked up instead (and found sources, too!)

        I say this as someone who loves using AI and experimenting with it1: This was a very bad use-case of generative AI.

        1: although lighter ones and locally like Mistral, using open datasets like OpenOrca

        Right? This is one of the perfect examples where we don’t care too much about the accuracy of the data, it would be extremely time consuming, etc etc.

      Yup. We are the left wing The Donald. They hate everything. And talk about the same shit incessantly without actually making any change cause they won’t engage with anyone else with a different opinion.
