Am I being dumb, or is this not making any sense? Thanks, but no thanks, Google, I think I'll work this out for myself. I've mainly used DuckDuckGo recently, so it is interesting to see this. #AI #smallbusiness

Machine learning is only truly effective and efficient for a small number of tasks when done right.
Large Language Models in particularly are only good for a small subset of Machine Learning tasks. None of these tasks are best done with a single monolithic "AI" machine.

Fun fact: if you're buying from a creator on etsy, you can reduce their etsy selling fees from 6.5% to 2.5% by ordering via 'shopname.etsy.com' instead of 'etsy.com/shopname' or searching from the main site. It costs you the same but the creator makes more
