narwhalHow Stuff Works replaced writers with GPT-generated content and laid off editors
This seems really short-sighted. Why would I go to How Stuff Works when I can just ask the LLM myself?
Maybe there’s just no possible business model for them anymore with the advent of LLMs, but at least if they focused on the “actually written by humans!” angle there’d be some hook to draw people in.
LoafyLemonLLM cannot create new concepts, it can only create a mishmash of things it has been fed on.
Just like Hollywood!
Isn't that exactly how howstuffworks operates though?
Humans aren’t much different. 99.9% of what we create is just a remix of existing parts/ideas. It’s why people spend 12-20 years pre-training on all the existing knowledge in the field they’re going to work in.
It's completely different. We can come up with new ideas, language models can't.
