I don't think that was the point. The thing is, people replace calculators with that...
Thing is, they only get some results right and hallucinate others. And you're doing billions of matrix multiplications just to calculate 2+1.
Sure. You can go to a construction site with only your one favorite tool. And use it for everything. And it's impressive to open a glass bottle of beer with a hammer and such. But I can guarantee you, you'll be slower digging that hole than the guys using a proper tool like an excavator.
And: you don't solve any fundamental problems if you don't have the data for it. If the information isn't in your data, the network will start guessing and it will be horrible.
That's not a translation problem, so LLMs are terrible for it.
Always use the right tool for the job. If there are a lot of nails to be hammered, you need a guy with a hammer.
Yeah, that was kind of my point. I think the meme picture means people throw it at everything. No matter what. And the next logical thing would be to strip the computer scientist out of the picture. We have Github Copilot now ;) Let AI decide if AI is the proper tool.
