    I’m anti AI but i have to give it to the technology, for once, it’s used for something good and for a task no one wanted to manually do, with incredible results

    Until the sector is regulated i’ll just say this never happened

      Technically this probably isn’t AI but rather ML (machine learning) which is something that made great strides in science already in the past decade or so. E.g. alphafold, a program to predict folding of protein sequences predates all LLM crap and has become a cornerstone of anything protein expression.

          So when I talk about LLM, I mean in first line ChatGPT since it was the big event bringing LLMs to the public.

          Alphafolds first version came out in 2018, ChatGPT was only released in 2022. I don’t know where AI image generation comes into this, but that wasn’t my point anyway.

        Machine learning is categorically part of AI. It is just that people started slopply using the term to mean exclusively LLMs and generative models. The problem has never been AI but rather who’s using it
