It is refreshing to see I am not the only person who cannot get LLMs to say anything valuable. I have tried several times, but the cycle "You're right to question this. I actually didn't do anything you asked for. Here is some more garbage!" gets really old really fast.

It makes me wonder whether everyone else is kidding themselves, or if I'm just holding it wrong.

Have been wondering this ever since 1 week after the initial ChatGPT release.

My cynical take is that most people don't do real work (i.e. one that is objectively evaluated against reality), so are not able to see the difference between a gimmick and the real thing. Most people are in the business of making impressions, and LLMs are pretty good at that.

It's good that we have markets that will eventually sort it out.

But then again, it's not as if markets always rewarded real work either.

Ultimately markets do ask the only relevant question : are people going to pay for LLMs' output.
