In ancient times, the japes of fools and jesters were heeded as warnings from the gods. I have not spent this much time burnishing my jester credentials for nothing -- dashbots are coming and they will ruin everything. #UXDesign #UX #ProductManagement #LLM #AI #GenAI #B2B

I've been toying a bit with using LLM's for generating solutions for simple spatial analysis tasks (clustering etc.).

Oh boy! 😔 This stuff will *cost lives* as it will inevitably be used in real-world applications in contexts that are not robust to bullshitting.

Not to speak of the countless hours wasted by experienced folks to fix the stuff junior "developers" come up with.

Productivity boost my a**. This will cause maintenance/debugging/cleanup work of unprecedented scale.

Re. Not anthropomorphizing LLMs

I'm a sucker for this. I'll apologise to an inanimate object if I walk into it.

I find useful practical tips for myself in following this to be:
1. Use the verb "I prompted" rather than I told or I asked.
2. State that the program "output" rather than it replied.
3. I don't discuss "confabulation" because it's an anthropomorphization (the reality is that the computer program is doing exactly what it is instructed to do by the user), but if I was compelled to anthropomorphize, I would use "confabulation" rather than hallucination.

Apart from burning down the planet and stealing all its content from unpaid uncredited human beings, the other big problem with AI/LLM is the amount of control we give away if we use it.

The "guardrails" that currently prevent an AI/LLM from suggesting nasty stuff can also be used to repress or censor or alter anything else.

Using AI/LLM is basically handing over control of knowledge, not just control of accessing it but altering it and rewriting it and banning it.

We really shouldn't be using AI/LLM, it is a really bad idea. It's just handing over our planet and society to a bunch of billionaire crooks.

Yup, today I did a search for something, and an #LLM summary / result combined an article I wrote with another, completely unrelated article, and provided a bullshit response that appeared factual.

Admittedly, it did give my site credit alongside the other article, but NOW, the problem is that it’s smearing my reputation as my article is correct, but the summary is wrong — implying that I’m the one that fucked up.

When the greed becomes automatist, something like this happens here:

»Open Source World – FOSS infrastructure is under attack by AI companies:
LLM scrapers are taking down FOSS projects' infrastructure, and it's getting worse.«

@molly0xfff on AI vs. scraping vs. copyright protection vs. openness. Very thoughtful (as usual) and worth reading.

Also included, this gem (together with other thoughts about sustainable business models):
«Many AI “visionaries” seem perfectly content to promise that artificial superintelligence is just around the corner, but claim that attribution is somehow a permanently unsolvable problem.»

thanks for summarizing in one article your personal experience with writing code with LLM. 🙏

I'll post some sentences I found interesting 👇
