Sloppy LLM programming? Never!

In completely unrelated news I've been staring at this spinner icon for the past five minutes after asking an LLM to output nothing at all:

same energy as “your request could not be processed due to the following error: Success”

What are the chances that the front end was not programmed to handle the LLM returning an empty string?

[-] sailor_sega_saturn@awful.systems 16 points 5 months ago

Quite likely yeah. There's no way they don't have a timeout on the backend.

boooo Gemini now replies "I'm just a language model, so I can't help you with that."

"what would a reply with no text look like?" or similar?

what would a reply with no text look like?

nah it just described what an empty reply might look like in a messaging app

they seem to have done quite well at making Gemini do mundane responses

[-] froztbyte@awful.systems 8 points 5 months ago

that's a hilarious response (from it). perfectly understand how it got there, and even more laughable
