    Practical applications for LLMs such as?

    Translation and voice-to-text (and vice versa) applications to name a couple.

    Personally, I have been using LLMs to help me code. They are not perfect, occasionally generating nonsense, and some are downright awful (looking at you, VSCode Copilot). But when they get it right, they saved me so much time.

    I know LLMs are associated with tech oligarchs currently, but to dismiss all LLMs as useless impractical is downright unfair.

















  • JUST LIKE EMAIL YOU NITWIT!

    We have very different perceptions of how people approach emails.

    Guess how tech illiterates(?) approach email? They sign up on Gmail - perhaps with some handholding - and that’s it. That’s all they know or care about.

    And before you say they don’t deserve to be on the internet: they are all using Facebook, Youtube, Whatsapp, etc. Unless platforms like Lemmy actually treat new users better, there’s not much incentive for people to switch.
