A note from one of my favourite authors at the moment.
@thirstybear Also, fire does have constructive uses. Not so LLMs.

@jmax

@thirstybear I think they mean machine learning, not llms

@yugthebug @jmax @thirstybear

LLMs are like AN/FO explosive when compared to most uses of machine learning style fire.

@resuna @yugthebug @jmax @thirstybear You probably use an ML system every time you spend money - every transaction is fraud scored at some point, some multiple times.
@TimWardCam
*Someone* (bank or payment processor) uses ML (edit: which are not LLMs) to check my transactions, not me and not (usually) the party I'm actively engaging with. What was your point?
@resuna @yugthebug @jmax @thirstybear
@ScriptFanix @resuna @yugthebug @jmax @thirstybear That not all "AI" is LLM and not all non-LLM "AI" is evil. Many people here get that, but there are plenty who don't.
@TimWardCam @ScriptFanix @resuna @yugthebug @jmax @thirstybear people know that. That’s why “AI” is in quotations.
