Leapfrogged? It never left. LLMs were made to make shit up.

Well, here we are. We skipped using this tech for only search Automation and leapfrogged to directly making shit up (once again).

Not necessarily, but I get what you mean…

To me it’s clear that these tools are primarily useful as bullshit generators, and I expect them to hallucinate and be inaccurate. But the companies trying to capitalize on the “AI” bubble are saying that these tools can be useful and accurate. I imagine OpenAI is going to have to invoke the Fox News defense in this case, and claim that “no reasonable person would take this seriously”.

Don’t use hallucinate to describe what it is doing, that is humanizing it and making the tech seem more advanced than it is. It is randomly mashing words together without understanding the meaning of any of them

I feel like the primary use of these tools is only grammar and writing assistance. Everything else is just plugging in extra tools to make it more useful… although the way Perplexity does it is considerably more useful than the rest.
