Plan to sleep longer this morning scuppered by someone parking their car with the engine running right in front of my bedroom window as they did their makeup. You couldn’t make it up.
My bedroom is usually at the rear of the house but that room is currently having the wallpaper stripped so I can get it replastered.
A 3000-word white paper I wrote is now a 4000-word white paper after I made changes based on comments and feedback. The new version was sent off for review. That's me done for the day. Daily dander time.
And I'm taking tomorrow off. Although I expect I'll still be reading technical articles as that’s what I do. ☺️
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.
@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.
