"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
I understand your experience and have had it myself. It's also highly dependent on the model you use. The most recent ChatGPT4.5 for instance, is pretty good at providing citations. The tech is being developed fast.
I don't doubt that it'll get better, although with the black box nature of these types of models, I'm not sure if it'll ever reach perfection. I understand neural networks, it's not exactly something you can flip the hood of and take a look at what's giving you weird results.
