Technology

As it should.

This is the way

Someone has already eaten an egg once so I’m closing this as duplicate

Jquery has egg boiling already, just use it with a hard parameter.

You could however ask your mom to help out....

Yeah. ...Maybe I should analyse a bit anyway, despite being tired...

In the aforementioned media the premise is usually that someone has built this amazing new computer system! Too good to be true, right? It goes horribly wrong! All very dramatic!

That never sat right with me, and was sad, because it was just placating boomer technophobia. Like, technological progress isn't necessarily bad, OK? That's the really sad part. I felt sad that good intentions remained unfulfilled.

Now, this incident is just tragicomical. I'd have a lot better view of LLM business space if everyone with a bit of sense in their heads admitted they're quirky buggy unreliable side projects of tech companies and should not be used without serious supervision, as the state of the tech currently patently is at the moment, but very important people with big money bags say that they don't care if they'll destroy the planet to make everything wobble around in LLM control.

Countries need to start implementing UBI NOW

It is funny that you mention this because it was after we started working with AI that I started telling one that would listen that we needed to implement UBI immediately. I think this was around 2014 IIRC.

I am not blanket calling AI stupid. That said, the AI term itself is stupid because it covers many computing aspects that aren't even in the same space. I was and still am very excited about image analysis as it can be an amazing tool for health imaging diagnosis. My comment was specifically about Google's Bard/Gemini. It is and has always been trash, but in an effort to stay relevant, it was released into the wild and crammed into everything. The tool can do some things very well, but not everything, and there's the rub. It is an alpha product at best that is being forced fed down people's throats.

Still at denial??

Don’t be so robophobic gramma

after 5 mins talking to an LLM about said field.

The insidious thing is that LLMs tend to be pretty good at 5-minute initial impressions. I've seen repeatedly people looking to eval LLM and they generally fall back to "ok, if this were a human, I'd ask a few job interview questions, well known enough so they have a shot at answering, but tricky enough to show they actually know the field".

As an example, a colleague became a true believer after being directed by management to evaluate it. He decided to ask it "generate a utility to take in a series of numbers from a file and sort them and report the min, max, mean, median, mode, and standard deviation". And it did so instantly, with "only one mistake". Then he tried the exact same question later in the day and it happened not to make that mistake and he concluded that it must have 'learned' how to do it in the last couple of hours, of course that's not how it works, there's just a bit of probabilistic stuff and any perturbation of the prompt could produce unexpected variation, but he doesn't know that...

Note that management frequently never makes it beyond tutorial/interview question fodder in terms of the technical aspect of their teams, and you get to see how they might tank their companies because the LLMs "interview well".
