Sure, but it’s all about 12 digit figures, not about making sense.

And their products are so fucking shit. Today I wanted to shit post in a Discord server I’m a part of. I felt like if I put effort into it, it wouldn’t really be a shit post any more. The idea was minimum effort for a few laughs and we move on. So I loaded up ChatGPT and asked it to generate the meme image. I thought even if it messed up the text, I would just generate it without the text and put the text in with gimp or something.
I put in the prompt, it spewed a lot of nonsense about what I meant and how it was going to generate the image. If I would just say “Generate it”, it would generate the image. So I did, it then said I needed to be signed in for image generation. OK fine, I signed in with a Gmail account I only ever use for spam, just for occasions such as this. It was happy to start generating.
It hung on generating for a while, until it said done in the status thing top right, but nothing in the chat. I refreshed the page, which gave me the option to prompt again. I asked where is the generated image? It said here it is and presented a gray box. It said if you see a gray box you uploaded it wrong? Wtf are you talking about? I didn’t upload anything. It said it could try generating again. Same exact result, crashing on generation, refresh yielding a new different gray box.
Like for fucks sake, the one thing I thought it would be good at, low effort shitposting, it failed at. Why the fuck does this company have such a large market cap?
I can’t wait for this whole AI debacle to be over and done with. Nobody is ever going to pay for your buggy ass bullshit generator.

Our company rolled out a new and innovative internal LLM. It’s intended to help with coding tasks and find internal documentation.
(Which really is just a wrapper over copilot).
When looking form-documentation, it fails harder than pasting the same text into the sesrch bar.
I don’t find LLMs helpful for coding since they’re wrong so often. But after encouragement I decided to try my hand at using it to help me debug a small 12 line bash script.
Whenever I posted examples it would fail silently. I assumed it wasnt sanitizing inputs so I tried a few other methods of wrapping the text. It would still faik silently.
Eventually, a half hour later I decided to just Google it. After I resolved my own problem it messaged me, 45+ minutes later to say “an error occurred trying to handle your request”.
These things suck so bad they can’t even error out effectively.
