When I started doing this work it was scary how fast they progressed. I thought I'd be redundant in a few months. Then they hit a wall very hard. The models might even be getting worse now. That could be my perception because a big part of the job is steering them toward failure and correcting the mistakes, so now I'm in the habit of exploiting their weaknesses.
They aren't going away, but if we can figure out the niches where they're actually useful, maybe the big AI companies will stop pretending LLMs are a digital panacea.
Which is why I call out "General Purpose LLMs" as the real problem. When they are given very specific, very narrow guidelines and training, they are actually often exceptional tools! It's the idea that they need to be an all-purpose-tool that does all jobs all the time that needs to be put to bed.
Gosh I hope so, because if we can get them to accept that as tools they're only useful in very tightly specific scenarios, we might actually get some real use out of them!
I am actually pro-AI, but anti-corporate-AI and general purpose AI. I view them as tools like any other, it's who is using them and how that makes the difference. A hammer can be used to build a house, it can also be used to crush someone's skull. Currently, corporations want to use AI to crush all of our skulls.
