What is it that you find useful?

[–] stressballs@lemmy.zip -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Medical help. Other than that, nothing that a local LLM couldn't do.

Eventually I believe it's going to result it worse care for the most people, but in the meantime, for some people it will mean early interventions. Maybe cure diseases... What humanity does from there I don't care to guess because it will probably be worse.

What do you mean by "medical help"?

[–] stressballs@lemmy.zip -2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Go that way and keep going until you see the sign marked none of your fucking business.

Why are you so angry? I'm trying to determine if there's actually a use for these text generators, and you first say "Sorry but if you can't make LLMs useful there is something wrong with how you are using them.", and then you refuse to actually explain what you're using it for, instead making vague hand-wavey statements.
