These LLM AIs are just regurgitating shit that's been fed into them. There's zero intelligence involved.

But they do make writing work emails a lot easier. I use chatgpt to write draft reports, always needs polishing but it's a lot easier than starting with a blank page, so I can see the productivity gains already.

LLMs are just regurgitating shit AND that’s most of what we do all day too.

(Speaking from a job as an innovator in a high tech field. Most of us are just doing engineering w/ concepts invented elsewhere. )
