    Not even a good use case either, especially when it spews such bullshit like “there’s no recorded instance of trump ever having used the word enigma” and “there’s 1 r in strawberry”.

    LLMs are a copy paste machine, not a rationalization engine of any sort (at least as far as all the slop that we get shoved in our face, I don’t include the specialized protein folding and reconstructive models that were purpose built for very niche applications)

      they’re solid starting point for shopping now that wirecutter, slant, and others are enshittified. i hate it and it makes me feel dirty to use, and you can’t just do whatever the llm says. but asking it for a list of options to then explore is currently the best way i’ve found to jump into things like outdoor basketball shoe options
