No one who is impressed by LLMs should ever be permitted to make decisions which affect anyone not similarly cognitively impaired.
On their own as an advancement in computing LLMs are impresive, but tech and finance bros overinflated the perception of their performance well beyond what’s reasonable to try to discipline workers for wanting more rights.
From a computing perspective the thing I find saddest is that everyone will hate anything having to do with AI in the future because of this bullshit. Given ownership by the people, more research into the field could actually liberate us all more from tedious labor.
I agree. The tech of an LLM is really cool and impressive. But what the tech market and finance markets have made of it is just really fucking sad. I really hope the bubble fucking bursts
Okay, but just to be clear, the problem is not that it can’t do a timer. The problem is that it claims to be able to and even produces a result which looks plausible. It means, you cannot trust it to do anything that you can’t easily verify. If they could fix that overconfidence in a year, it would be much better.
So, ChatGPT can’t match any function of a Casio wristwatch. I’m concerned that when it can, it will consume the power of microwaving a turkey just to tell a user what time it is.
a better comparison: if you ask siri to time you like this 10 years ago, it would correctly start the timer app
He’s too busy teaching it how to sexually assault his sister.
AGI just around the corner
C’mon bro, just one more trillion, that’s all. Then we’ll have a paradise with a new Epstein island and everything.
This guy looks like a psychopath in every photo.
its a requirement to be a CEO, especially tech CEO.
He looks like a reindeer caught middle of the road
It’s because he knows how screwed OpenAI, actually is.
He acts like he’s surfing the wave. He looks like he’s exactly as deep in the hole as he actually is.
ChatGPT is the next Theranos.
He hasn’t just scammed consumers. He’s scammed investors. And that’s the one crime that actually lands people like him in prison.
ChatGPT and other LLMs need access to tools for things like this just like you and I do. If you ask me how many seconds have elapsed since I started typing this, I would give you a convincing estimate. I would need a Casio watch to give you an exact answer.
This is correct. LLM’s are just the knowledge and information processing bit of our brain. To actually do things we need access to things like our limbs, eyes, ears, watch, computer,…
Which is why my comment in this thread spoke of an mcp tool and a webhook, which is all thats needed. So a year for that? Fuck off, thats absurdly long for 2 things that already exist and just need to br plugged in the source…
There’s a guy on tiktok called Huskistaken (yes, i know) that demonstrates repeatedly just how useless chatgpt is.
The first video of his I saw was him playing a clip of altman stating that it doesn’t have a timer and chat gpt countering that it does.
He then gets it to start a timer to time his long it takes him to run a mile and almost instantly tells it to stop. It tells him it was +7 minutes!
he’s linked in the article
The link I posted is him reacting to sister fuckers reaction
FatherPi on YouTube highlights how bad all the LLMs are.
How many Rs in strawberry?
A year? To make a mcp tool that starts a timer and a website hook that listens for the timer?
Alright, thats kinda fucked lol
