The hype and utility about LLMs are overstated and will cause problems due to leadership teams in organisations (and Governments) buying into the hype.
However, they do have value as personal assistants, research assistants, and sounding boards as long as you treat all LLM output critically, especially on topics where you are not an expert.
I’m using Claude 3 Opus as a research assistant. It’s read more of the world’s info than I ever will. I am also trying out ChatGPT-4o.
@ianRobinson Among the commercial ones that are available online, Claude is definitely the best one.
Though I personally run LLMs on my own PC 90% of the time.
@hirad Agreed. I thought about running a local one (or a private Cloud LLM) and loading it with the 1000 or so articles I’ve written over the last decade. I still might.
