this bird was hanging around last night, i think it's a grouse but i'm not entirely sure. it didn't seem very afraid of people but definitely would not let anyone get close enough to touch it

can anyone on bird fedi can get a positive id? (sorry for the potato quality picture, this phone is not good in low light)

active directory, but as a password manager
microsoft/github, google, mozilla, and many other companies are pushing LLMs as the next big thing, and we're already seeing the consequences. google search is largely useless now, in the past i would tell people to "just google it" because i knew that there would be useful info if someone searched for an answer, now i hesitate and most often recommend other avenues of finding info. microsoft is recommending wild LLM-generated news stories that have no base in reality, right in the windows operating system. github is pushing their "copilot" LLM Hard despite it generating buggy, useless code that results in just as much time wasted debugging it as if it was written from scratch.

LLMs are unfit for purpose

as a statistical model it will find interesting relationships between data that is fed to it.

any other application of the technology is going to result in it generating garbage. if someone is pushing it as a new hot tech that applies to your field they are likely a scam artist/huckster along the lines of the blockchain/nft scams that were widespread in the not so distant past and are just looking to relieve you of your money.
