This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

See, that’s your problem. You’re arguing, with me, about something that was said to you by someone else. Do you realize why I’m questioning your argumentative skills?

I'm sorry? You came to me.

Here is how I see it:

  1. Someone compared AI to calculator/calendar
  2. I said you cannot compare that
  3. You asked why I even argue with the first person
  4. I said that I want a better discussion
  5. You said that I should stop dimissing other people's arguments
  6. I tried to explain why I don't think it is a valid argument to compare LLM to "calculator can do reliably. or a timer. or a calendar."
  7. You did not seem to agree with me on that from what I understand.
  8. And now we are here.

Here’s a source to a study

I don't have the time to read the articles now so I will have to do it later, but hallucinations can definitively be a problem. Asking for code is one such situation where an LLM can just make up functions that does not exist.
