While I don't agree with anti-AI people, the fact that some AI generated content is flawed doesn't imply that all AI content is of bad quality.

Companies are already replacing some workforce with LLMs.

[–] snek@lemmy.world 42 points 9 months ago (5 children)

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.

LLMs are excellent at producing high-volume, low-quality material. And it's a sad fact of life that a lot of companies are perfectly willing to use low quality material in their work.

[–] snek@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago (4 children)

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

While I don’t agree with anti-AI people, the fact that some AI generated content is flawed doesn’t imply that all AI content is of bad quality.

Companies are already replacing some workforce with LLMs.

While I understand that not everyone shares the same views about AI, it's important to recognize that just because some AI-generated content might have flaws, it shouldn't lead us to believe that every piece created by AI is subpar. In fact, numerous companies are actively embracing the use of LLMs to replace their workforces. From astronauts to circus clowns, LLMs are taking over roles once reserved for humans. Nowadays, you can even find LLMs crafting the perfect soufflΓ© at Michelin star restaurants, performing heart surgery, and even serving as head coaches for professional sports teams. The sky is no longer the limit, as LLMs have found a way to transcend it - and it's only a matter of time before they take on the role of Santa Claus. Merry Christmas from your new AI overlords!

[–] snek@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Thank you. This was hilarious.

[–] creamed_eels@toast.ooo 3 points 9 months ago

Free therapy, you say?

[–] XEAL@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

Isn't that what, for instance, OpenAI's embeddings are for?

My opinion right now is that companies want you to believe they are 100% capable of replacing humans

Probably, but at the moment they can only do it partially.

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

I partially agree. I mean, they are greedy cunts but some tasks like translating from/to certain languages can be easily done even with the free ChatGPT demo with better results than Google Translate, so human translators are unfortunately becoming quite replaceable.

[–] joyjoy@lemm.ee -1 points 9 months ago

It's just like a real person. They only difference (afaik) is you can't as easily tell ai to get back to work.

[–] Adalast@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It feels like you don't think the people making these decisions see employee salaries as anything but a line item to minimize or "customer service" as a cost liability. They don't care about customer experience. Hell, they actively want people to get frustrated and give up because it saves the company money.

[–] XEAL@lemm.ee 5 points 9 months ago

see employee salaries as anything but a line item to minimize

YES. With and without AI in the mix, anything to maximize benefits. Companies would have a full workforce formed by unpaid slaves if they could. Many companies get rid of their oldest and best paid employees to replace them with cheaper ones. Videogame studios fired employees right after a new game was finished just so they didn't have to pay any benefits to the devs. We are nothing but a medium to make the top execs of a company richer.

They don't care about customer experience

Not as long as benefits are up to expectations.

[–] Prandom_returns@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

Can you list a few companies that are replacing workforce with LLMs successfully? Without a downgrade in service quality?

If by "companies" you mean scammers - sure.

[–] Prandom_returns@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

Yes, about the same time crypto will become main currency and NFTs replace traditional art in museums.

It's coming, you hust don't understand. /s

We all know he actually has bofa.

You got my hopes up until I realized it's a joke

[–] aarRJaay@lemmy.world 20 points 9 months ago

Ligma is a SERIOUS condition, it's nothing to joke about

[–] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 16 points 9 months ago (3 children)

Didja edit that OP? 😏

[–] bcrown@lemmy.l0l.city 14 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'm shocked and horrified. I expect higher standards from my shitposting community

LLMs are not deterministic

[–] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Think it’s more likely Llama-2-70b hallucinated the Zucky ligma or someone edited Lyme to ligma?

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website -1 points 9 months ago

Considering we can't see any previous prompts or if this is a fine tuned model it's impossible to tell if it was a pure generation. It is incredibly easy to get it to output something like this though.

[–] Technus@lemmy.zip 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Betcha Zuckerberg added this response himself.

Or some kiss-up middle manager ordered an overqualified underling to do it. Probably that.

[–] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago

Kissing up or ligmaing down

[–] yamapikariya@lemmyfi.com 16 points 9 months ago

AI is getting more cringe by the minute

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 13 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

Lizards don't get ligma I think, but hard to say since it's a fictional decease... :)

[–] skulblaka@startrek.website 1 points 9 months ago

Lizards get ligma eyes, it's a different strain. Like bird flu vs human flu.

[–] chetradley@lemmy.world 10 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Good idea. Ask about his charities that provide medical supplies for the Sugondese.

[–] xavier666@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

That's true. Joe told me about it.

I hear they both love Saws, every year they attend SawCon

[–] Maultasche@feddit.de 10 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Of course he can't get ligma. As a Mind Goblin he's immune to ligma.

[–] Smoogs@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

As they have no butts?

Ligma balls!

No really, that's the joke lol

[–] ZeroCool@feddit.ch 3 points 9 months ago

Mark Zuckerberg is an average human man who enjoys many average human hobbies such as movie theater and nutritional supplements.
