For words, it's pretty good. For code, it often invents a reasonable-sounding function or model name that doesn't exist.

    It's not even good for words. AI just writes the same stories over and over and over and over and over and over. It's the same problem as coding. It can't think of anything novel. Hell it can't even think. I'd argue the best and only real use for an llm is to help be a rough draft editor and correct punctuation and grammar. We've gone way way way too far with the scope of what it's actually capable of

    @Xenny @frongt it's definitely not good for words with any technical meaning, because it creates references to journal articles and legal precedents that sound plausible but don't exist.Ultimately it's a very expensive replacement for the lorem ipsum generator keyboard shortcut.
