like LLM like shithead

fuck, there's potential here, but a bit too specific for a t-shirt?

like llm like idiot

perhaps?

oh, I get it, you personally choose not to make these structurally-repeatable-by-foundation errors? you personally choose to be a Unique And Correct Snowflake?

wow shit damn, I sure want to read your eventual uni paper, see what kind of distinctly novel insight you've had to wrangle this domain!

(also I did my disclaimer at the start there, so, y'know (but also igwym))

a'ight, sure bub, let's play

tell me what hw spec I need to deploy some kind of interactive user-facing prompt system backed by whatever favourite LLM/transformer-model you want to pick. idgaf if it's llama or qwen or some shit you've got brewing in your back shed - if it's on huggingface, fair game. here's the baselines:

  • expected response latencies: human, or better
  • expected topical coherence: mid-support capability or above
  • expected correctness: at worst "I misunderstood $x" in the sense of "whoops, sorry, I thought you were asking about ${foo} but I answered about ${bar}"; i.e. actual, contextual, concrete contextual understanding

(so, basically, anything a competent L2 support engineer at some random ISP or whatever could do)

hit it, I'm waiting.

how dare I use someone's own words against them!

You can experiment on your own GPU

you have lost the game

you have been voted off the island

you are the weakest list

etc etc etc

also

I’ve spent 6+ years of my life in compsci academia

eh. look.

I realize you'll probably receive/perceive this post negatively, ranging as anywhere from "criticism"/"extremely harsh" through ... "condemnation"?

but, nonetheless, I have a request for you

please, for the love of ${deity}, go out and meet people. get out of your niche, explore a bit. you are so damned close to stepping in the trap, and you could do not-that.

(just think! you've spent a whole 6+ years on compsci? now imagine what your next 80+ years could be!)

ah yes, my ability to read a pdf immediately confers upon me all the resources required to engage in materially equivalent experimentation of the thing that I just read! no matter whether the publisher spent cents or billions in the execution and development of said publication, oh no! it is so completely a cost paid just once, and thereafter it's ~totally~ free!

oh, wait, hang on. no. no it's the other thing. that one where all the criticisms continue to hold! my bad, sorry for mistaking those. guess I was roleplaying a LLM for a moment there!
