A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

@Kissaki In another thread, people are mocking AI because the free language models they are using are bad at drawing accurate maps. "AI can't even do geography". Anything an AI says can't be trusted, and AI is vastly inferior to human ability.
These same people haven't figured out the difference between using a language AI to draw a map, and simply asking it a geography question.
I think the point is that even if LLMs suck at task A, they might be really good at task B. Just because code written by LLMs is often riddled with security flaws, doesn't mean LLMs also suck at identifying those flaws.
