Those guys are so used to selling horseshitvapourware to each other they don’t even know how to talk to people who actually make stuff that works.

Amazing to watch Google destroy its core functionality chasing AI. Friends on the groupchat were talking about Rickey Henderson, who threw left and hit from the right side, which is really rare. If you go to google to find other throw left/bat right players. This is what its AI gives you.

So, I guess not.
do as you like. Im nobody. that above was just my view of things. not an answer to your question.
It’s for anything related to AI or LLM… it’s a complex subject, and I think we can handle the argument/idea that there might be some potential uses for these technologies. People might disagree that there is (as I’m inclined to be), but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t see people’s arguments in favor of some sort of use of them… 
I know some people believe we’re one of them “liberal” spaces that claims to be open-minded, but is just as bad as fascists, but I don’t think that’s the case. Rejecting forms of bigotry or lazy thinking or not putting up with defeatist bullshit or… you get the point… isn’t the same thing as shutting down robust discussions on difficult topics.

There are absolutely uses, I use some of these technologies every day.
My way of thinking about the field is that you are automatically re-writing equations that model something. If you are working with an appropriate set of equations, automating the mechanisms that an expert would use to manipulate them, and the final result is comprehensible and rigorous (to an expert) then you end up with a mathematical function that can be proven to map your inputs to an appropriate response that attains your objectives.
Far too much “AI” work does not understand its problem, applies the wrong equations, burns horrible amounts of resources on inappropriate processes it cannot thoroughly explain, and has no way of investigating the crooked lines drawn by the model from their dubious assumptions to an opaque and muddled solution.
Unfortunately, the latter produces illusions easily sold to non-expert management. The former requires an expensive combination of ability, discipline and time.

Robyn Speer also blames the added expense associated with Reddit and Twitter’s API, and the Generative AI community’s interest in making machines for plagiarism.

Newsom in a statement described the bill as “well-intentioned,” but noted that its requirements would have called for “stringent” regulations that would have been onerous for the state’s leading artificial intelligence companies.

Allen shot back, arguing that “the Office ignore[d] the essential element of human creativity required to create a work using the Midjourney program.” By that, Allen meant that the court should recognize “his ‘creative input’ into Midjourney, which included ‘enter[ing] a series of prompts, adjust[ing] the scene, select[ing] portions to focus on, and dictat[ing] the tone of the image,'” which he claimed was “on par with that expressed by other types of artists and capable of Copyright protection.”
He is free to record the prompts he used to create the work and publish them in a pamphlet, and that would be protected. Too easy. He would enjoy the same protections as that afforded a chef who writes a cookbook.
