It's a weird one. Brief background: in a D&D Spelljammer campaign I'm playing a character who's a plasmoid, a sort of intelligent ooze. Every once in a while she expresses frustration with the fact that the other members of her party insist on having bones since they get in the way of so many potential solutions to the problems we encounter in our adventures.

I recently generated some songs to try further pushing her anti-skeleton agenda, Embrace the Flow and Hey, Be Slime Tonight, and they're both firmly lodged in my head now.

Stupid bones.

I've found the Fediverse to be a lot "bubblier" than Reddit, I suspect because the communities are smaller. Makes it easier for groupthink to become established. One element of the @technology bubble is a strong anti-AI sentiment, I've kind of given up on getting any useful information on that subject here. Quite unfortunate given how widespread it's getting.

But we don't like AI, therefore anything negative said about it is more plausible than anything positive said about it. You see the dilemma here.

Quite likely, but not what I'm addressing. My point is simply that there was also a non-silly reason for why these charges were laid. If there weren't then this wouldn't have gone on as long as it did.

Whereas I use LLMs every day, have actually written code that uses them, and I understand that they're perfectly fine dealing with factual information when used in the proper framework. You'd be using retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) in an application like this.

The "but hallucinations!" Objection goes in the same bin as "they can't do fingers." It's an old concern that's had a lot of work done to resolve it but that the general public haven't bothered to keep up with.

Don't know. I'm just saying it wasn't as silly as it commonly seems.

How dare you say something insufficiently negative about the stuff everyone hates.

Because they know their audience.
