Reply to comment by twovests in i may be asked to do an integration with an LLM in a couple hours by hollyhoppet

the company is extremely bullish right now on automation as a cost saving measure so unless it's something directly unethical i don't think i have much room to call it out. also yeah we're not hosting our own models it would be through chatgpt lol

best case i can say "i don't know if this will work very well" and do whatever they ask. best best case is i'm only tangentially doing something to enable another team's integration.

Oh man :\

I'm assuming this isn't a niche case where integrating an LLM makes sense right?

Perhaps you could raise high standards for the business justification and value of adding an LLM. Note the reputational risk of appearing to chase gimmicks at the expense of user experience. Maybe your app demographic is one which would be alienated by adding LLM garbage?

The company I work for has a natural-language processing powered tool and we've still not integrated new LLMs into it AFAIK. (The only information I have about this is what's public knowledge, to note)

Either way, good luck!! If you have to do the LLM integration I hope you can at least host your own models and you can at least make it known how poorly interpretable and how poorly predictable LLMs are.

I've got to hand it to Elon Musk, I didn't appreciate what we had until he threw it away. Hate to say it, but Twitter, for all it's problems, was good.

Things which felt like institutions are dying before fast. Google Search, Twitter, Windows, etc. are all gone or hollowed.

Been thinking about the fact I'll probably live to see linux get replaced or die too. Honestly chilling to think.

A shame, without nitter if you don't have an account you cant view threads or comments, only the original post you were linked to, so this leaves users without accounts unable to see most of the site, and i'm sure as hell not making a new twitter account.

shame. though i did have a good time reading the off-topic comments on github arguing the merits of mastodon in shadow the hedgehog voice.

I think I was banned from Twitter for searching too hard. There's a couple of good guys with permaculture and social science effort threads there that I consulted a lot, but needed some search-fu to find. I think I failed the Turing test.
