    Is it because he thinks he is the brightest human scientist, but it turns out he’s actually pretty stupid?

      You can tell how competent someone is at something by how good they think an LLM is at that thing.

        Ai is pretty good at sucking proverbial and metaphorical dick.

        Also generating subtitles for my mother’s foreign films I guess?

        It’s painfully just ok at most tasks. It’s a someone useful tool at a local level with small models doing extremely narrow tasks.

        But anyone who thinks these giant models are remotely beyond just a glorified over priced hobby toy is… Questionably sane.

        They are fun to play with in the same sorta way playing with explosives is.
