Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

The major problem is that the work of an LLM has a massive number of hidden 'assumptions' that you need to be aware of. If you don't already have a good working knowledge of the task you wont have an intuition about those assumptions. It's annoying.
Yeah, and for those who don't know, the rationalization output of the LLM is just so pursuasive. It sounds quietly confident and rattles off things that sound like real details.
People are believing the LLM output over actual human experts and the human experts have to expend non-trivial effort trying to disprove an LLM output before they can get on with the business of doing it right.
Yeah, like cards being the best thing ever on front-end. If I want a basic layout I put "avoid cards" usually because then it'll use them sparingly. But yeah, it's just autocomplete so it's always going to get the lowest common denominator code based on what it decided to look at.
I'm now looking into finding something faster than GPT/Claude where I can ping pong prompt faster and get what I want. Whatever it writes first is just a first draft anyway.
