All these LLMs really suck for niche stuff.

Like, I can tell it MULTIPLE times that -readable isn't a thing on z/OS Unix find, but sure enough, it keeps adding it back.

@mainframed767 My main observation about LLMs is this: they can only answer questions for which I already know the answer. But if that’s their only capability, what’s the point?

@racingmars @mainframed767 being a lazy student that won't learn true problem solving and research skills resulting in a generation of stunted graduates? Did I get it right?

@racingmars honestly, they're really only good at helping me take a few bullet points and making a business-y sounding report.

And rapid prototyping python argparse.

But you're right, these are both things I already could do, it just does it faster.

@krupo @racingmars you make it sound like LLMs don't make more problems you need to solve awesome

If anything, you need to be a real good problem solver when working with LLMs, unless the task is stupid simple.

@mainframed767 @racingmars "business-y sounding report" -> I'm sorry but I'm triggered by this... "business-y" content is wasting my time, and IMO if someone prefers that instead of an on-point, although stylisticly imperfect report, it's the reader's problem not the writer's.
