If it was used in a research as a step? Perchance.

Pouring everything we have into it? Dumbest fucking decision of our lives.

We could have put all that effort into previous versions and could tweak them enough to gather perhaps slightly worse results, maybe even better, we will never know.

Making this shit more efficient is to me also dumb.

What in the fuck are we doing that requires this shit? It helps with coding? We can make better frameworks. Translations? We had those before, even TTS. Emails? Just use a template. The other side is not reading that slop anyway. So what exactly are we doing here?

    LLMs are a dead end.

    Their only value is showing how fucked up our society is.

    Suddenly and very publicly copyrights only matter if you're poor, electricity is wasted on the poor, water is not for the poor... it's always been like this, but the LLM bandwagon really showcased all of that in one shiny package.

    The only good thing could be gathering public knowledge into a single space, but they don't even do that.

    So it's all net negative in my eyes.
