It's perfectly coherent. For instance; mRNA vaccines changed your life, why are you ignoring it to bloviate about LLMs? How is that coherent? AI has had a much smaller impact on humanity, relatively speaking.
Suffice it to say that HN is not well-suited for people obsessing over a pet topic, like you seem to be. Many of us have nothing against LLMs, and are embarrassed by your passionate and fruitless defense of the technology. If AI is so great, go make a name for yourself with it and stop bothering us for attention. Go on, stop wasting your valuable time and change humanity. We'll wait.
“Bloviate about LLMs” lol our jobs are materially changed significantly by it. Vaccines didn’t change our jobs directly other than a few aspects and my indulgence with that topic reflects it. Did you forget this is a technology forum?
In a technology forum where we speak about technology, a new technology significantly changed our way of working - obviously it is expected that people speak about it.
I think you are unable to cope with AI encroaching your life and you are hiding away from it.
And you think people speaking about LLMs are naive or something? I think you haven’t come to terms with it. Or you have but you want to not speak about it because you don’t like it?
> I think you are unable to cope with AI encroaching your life and you are hiding away from it.
That would be the case if you were doing anything impressive or noteworthy with it. Can you show me your AI magnum opus, or are you also struggling to adopt it?
> And you think people speaking about LLMs are naive or something?
No, just you. Your rhetoric is entirely emotional and relies on authority that you haven't earned as a developer. You've neglected the logical appeal of your argument so I'm laughing at your inability to highlight AI's most influential contributions to humanity. Relative to actual hard-tech, it's a nothingburger sandwich.
I don’t make magnum opus. I use it in my daily life. I’m forced to. It’s basically my job.
My job has completely transformed because of AI.
> so I'm laughing at your inability to highlight AI's most influential contributions to humanity
AI recently helped solve open problems in mathematics that would have normally been awarded a Fields medal for.
You think it’s a nothingburger when a fields medalist has said that it is reshaping mathematics, what does that say about your ability to grasp the importance of it?
