Also very true.

A couple (more) problems with the rollout of LLMs are that: 1) they were released to the public without any governance in place, and (2) they are marketed as Artificial Intelligence, which most people associate with things they’ve seen in movies.

It’s just software. 🍸

Update: A hammer **still** can’t unscrew a bolt.

Its just an LLM. It’s more capable of building a tic-tac-toe game engine then it is of playing the game itself.

If you’re trying to play a game against an LLM, it’s simply the wrong tool.
