Great, More Drivel About Large Language Models

“Promoting Innovation, Reducing Costs, blah, blah…”

In the latest iteration of technobabble, this insipid article regards the unprecedented ho-hum potential of openly accessible large language models. Basically, they’re thrusting low-brow developer tools at the masses so they can jerk around with AI.

Forging New Ground or Just Rehashing Old Rubbish?

According to this soporific literature, these large language models (why do they have to be so large and pretentious?) are going to “promote innovation” and “reduce costs” (sound familiar, corporate drones?). They’re hoping that by letting every Tom, Dick, and Mary mess around with these models, they’ll somehow make them better for everyone else. It’s like expecting a room full of monkeys to hammer out Shakespeare.

Implication of the “Revolutionary” Technology

Here’s the glorious implication the author failed to recognize with their rose-tinted glasses; this is just tech companies’ cheap trick to outsource labor and get free work, all under the guise of “community collaboration”. Be prepared for torrents of mediocre AI improvements from armchair developers. And let’s not forget the potential for privacy nightmares and amateurish misuse of technology.

Closing Remarks on this Masterpiece of Misdirection

So here’s the deal. We have a delightful level of absurdity where the heinous task of developing language models is just flung open to anyone with a keyboard. It’s a dopey version of crowdsourcing, where everyone contributes but the companies reap most of the benefits. Prepare for a future where “innovation” is a buzzword thrown around to justify their cost-cutting measures. And if you read and loved this article, you probably lick salt lamps for fun.
