Did you use ChatGPT or another LLM to write this? This reads like AI slop.

An LLM, just like any technology, is in itself neutral.

I don't agree with this statement. All technology is built with a purpose in mind. Saying it's neutral is a lie.

I think the difference between generative AI and AI as a whole needs to be made here.

Does it? I would not consider LLMs to be AI and it's unfortunate that a marketing gimmick has been turned into a colloquialism to the point where they have stolen the term AI and renamed the original pre-OpenAI concept to "AGI".

Regardless, the point I am making is that the current hype surrounding LLMs is unwarranted.

The level of data that machine learning systems can analyze provides a usage far beyond the problems that are certainly inherent to generative AI.

But here's where I disagree. I think Machine Learning at least has a relatively modest marketing pitch, where you feed it data and based on some training and inputs (yes this is indeed similar to an LLM) and you will get a reasonable estimation of whatever you are seeking as an output, based on historical data. Nobody is running around claiming that my monitoring system that has some ML in it for CPU and temperature and load averages is suddenly going to turn into God like Sam Altman and all these other wackos want to happen with LLMs.

I would argue that if your goal is to get an output that is the statistical mean for a given input, then sure an LLM will generate a set of outputs that statistically go together. It just happens that you throw enough data at it and waste a small country's annual energy consumption then of course you'll get something statistically similar. Congrats. You did it.

Absolutely. My comment was meant to be sarcastic but I dislike the Reddit brained /s

I'm not so sure about that. Your analysis correctly identifies that it is being used in the West for nefarious purposes, but I honestly think even on the technical merits it is a flawed technology and a waste. DeepSeek is more efficient, yes, but it is still a flawed technology that I do not believe they should be using

I think I remember you on Hexbear if this was the same name you used there. How's it going?

This could block November from attending the in person WTYP shows. Sucks.
