Just heard this today - co worker used an LLM to find him some shoes that fit. Basically prompted it to find specific shoes that fit wider/narrower feet and it just scraped reviews and told him what to get. I guess it worked perfectly for him.

I hate this sort of thing - however this is why normies love LLM's. It's going to be the new way every single person uses the internet. Hell, on a new win 11 install the first thing that comes up is copilot saying "hey use me i'm better than google!!"

Frustrating.

Unfortunately youre right. If it wasn't completely owned by massive corps pushing techo-facist ideology and mass surveillance, i could maybe see it as a positive thing. But it will not be used for good in the long run.

Right. So that is what we need to change.

You cant change that, short of sabotaging data centers or getting rid of billionaires.

Better to rally against it and not use it whenever possible.
