As someone who works with LLMs, they shouldn’t…

You still need your chatbot to stick to business rules and act like a real customer service rep, and that’s incredibly hard to accomplish with generative models where you cannot be there to evaluate the generated answers and where the chatbot can go on a tangent and suddenly start to give you free therapy when you originally went in to order pizza.

Don’t get me wrong, they’re great for many applications within the manual loop. They can help customer service reps (as one example) function better, provide more help to users, and dedicate more time to those who still need a human to solve their issues.

Companies are already replacing some workforce with LLMs.

My opinion right now is that companies want you to believe they are 100% capable of replacing humans, but that’s because people in upper management never listen to the damn developers down in the basement (aka me), so they have an unrealistic expectation of AI coupled with an unending desire for money and success.

They are replacing them because they are greedy cunts, not because they are replaceable.

Do you mean the embeddings? platform.openai.com/docs/…/what-are-embeddings

If so:

The word embeddings and embedding layers are there to represent data in ways that allow the model to make use of them to generate text. It’s not the same as the model acting as a human. It may sound like a human in text or even speech, but its reasoning skills are questionable at best. You can try to make it stick to your company policy but it will never (at this level) be able to operate under logic unless you hardcode that logic into it. This is not really possible with these models in that sense of the word, after all they just predict the best next word to say. You’d have to wrap them around with a shit ton of code and safety nets.

GPT models require massive amounts of data, so they were only that good at languages for which we have massive texts or Wikipedias. If your language doesn’t have good content on the internet or freely available digitalized content on which to train, a machine can still not replace translators (yet, no idea how long this will take until transfer learning is so good we can use it to translate low-resource languages to match the quality of English - French, for example).

If they had ever cared about quality, they would have treated their employees with dignity and paid them enough 😬

Thanks for the details you provided though, it was informative and might affect the next time I post something like this (maybe I’ll add some kind of disclaimer or something).

I mean if you posted a funny meme of hitler, would it not have a swastika on it?

And yes, this is Lemmy Shitpost. If you want classier shit I think you might want to look elsewhere.

snek, 8 months ago

I guess saying anything that sniffs remotely as politically incorrect (whatever that is these days) leads us straight to swastikas lol

snek, 8 months ago

Basically the contrast was hilarious and it seemed like a good shit post

snek, 8 months ago (edited 2 days ago)

Yeah. I think. I’m what you would call someone who posted it “ironically”.

snek, 8 months ago

In any case, thanks for pointing it out. Obviously people should be aware that it’s a meme that has incel undertones and is likely made by an incel (I found it online and reposted it here… not really anywhere in specific, I think I was duckduckgo’ing something else and this popped up in the results, so not from 4chan or anything like that).

I can appreciate that you laugh at the funny face, but the message genuinely disgusts me.

I respect that. I understand that, if seen from the incel lens, this meme looks bad.

I want you to post memes that aren’t shitty

**Sorry, sadly that’s not something that I’ll stop doing on Lemmy Shitpost.**I recommend you check out Ten Forward, where I post better memes… if you like Star Trek.

I apologize for my tone. be well snek

You too, TimewornTraveller, may you travel somewhere less cruel than our current era for some time and rest that weariness 😊

I’ve seen lots of people get obsessed over their “fit” looks, and sometimes them going to the gym is both caused and made worse by more obsession with fitness.

Personally, it helped my confidence a lot and made me happier in my body to hit the gym. Seeing progress in something where you have to have grit and dedication usually does help people boost their confidence though, like learning an instrument or a new language, especially in children. Nothing as rewarding as meeting one’s own goals, if you ask me.

I couldn’t hear half the shit Piers said or any of the other people because he keeps talking over them like a gigantic baby. What a total loser.

“poor fella” like you even give a single fuck… Posting this for karma whoring or what?

The word “resume” + being an old and solid link + me using a search engine with settings that allow you to customize which places to search, and I’m not returning results from all major search engines and only keeping alternative ones.

This works fine for work or when coding. It searches Stack Overflow and forums, immensely useful when trying to research things or solve problems.

There’s a lot of evidence that modern CBT therapy just doesn’t really connect with men very well. Mainly because we don’t really tend to solve problems by “considering more gratitude” or “trying yoga at sunrise maybe?” (Was a legit suggestion when I had a therapist lol)

Source?

I’m asking because this sounds nothing like CBT that I did. I’m a woman, but it was gut-wrenching and scary to do exposure therapy. Nothing at all about yoga or gratitude… sounds more like traditional talk therapy to me.

I would give CBT a chance, honestly… I feel like you have some kind of misinformed opinion or maybe had a crappy therapist.

Edit: just for clarity, CBT is a type of talk therapy, but the stuff this person I’m replying to describes sounds more like traditional armchair therapist self-help-book Freudian therapy.

No, it won’t. I don’t think I would have made it here today alive without my therapist. There may be companies that have AI agents doing therapy sessions but your qualifications will still be priceless and more effective in comparison.
