Comment on At least one of the 7 letters has still some relevance to my life.
lonesomeCat@lemmy.ml 1 day agoDeveloper here, I seriously don’t know what to think of the modern tech in general. I reject LLMs because they’re not trustworthy so all of my searches are your typical search engine, stackoverflow, etc. The internet feels so empty, you’d rarely find anything from the last couple of years that’s not AI-gen.
This is making believe that we will reach a point when our tech stack docs are only cooked into LLMs and I fucking hate that. I would rather go back to the 1990s over this.

The problem is it’s an arms race! Stop treating LLMs like their existence is the problem and start viewing it via the lens of war:
The enemy has lots of badly-behaving LLMs! Marketers, scammers, and lazy management are equipped with Big AI brand LLMzookas that are sending hallucinations our way!
Captain: “So what do we do about it?”
Soldier: “Captain, there’s FOSS LLMs that we can deploy! We can use them to defeat the enemy’s bullshit slingers! They can be used to search the web on our behalf to filter out hallucinations and advertisements disguised as content! We can set them up to monitor enemy deployments and analyze intelligence to find the truth and stop propaganda in its tracks!”
Captain: “…but can FOSS AI generate boobs‽”
Soldier: “Sir, FOSS has already surpassed commercial AI in that front of the war.”
Captain: “We need to deploy FOSS AI ASAP!”
