@CressSalad@mastodon.social @mu@mastodon.nz @AlSweigart@mastodon.social A big problem with statistically generated answers is that correct information isn’t necessarily the most statistically prevalent. In fact, there are very well funded organizations dedicated to making sure that it isn’t. Yet people perceive information from computers as being both unbiased and more accurate than information from humans.

@CressSalad @AlSweigart LLMs aren't neural nets. In addition, organisations come into new and novel situations all the time, LLMs can only go on their training data. An LLM will not be able to provide any useful information in that scenario. Leading an organisation is a skill-based job. In the LLM scenario, the CEO would be the person doing the prompting. Further, if you are setting up a scenario where everyone in the organisation does what a LLM tells them to, you're very quickly going to have a real problem.
