This sounds really interesting, do you have a link or anything I could look for in a quick search to learn more?

I would also like to know this!

Why are you so rude to this person? You know other countries exist outside of North America and folks from anywhere in the world should be welcome on Lemmy even if they don’t know anything about US politics or whatever?

Sadly you’ve been replied to by a bunch of folks who rudely assume a very USA-centric view of the world.

This post is talking about USA politics, where the leader of the country is currently a piece of shit criminal who is allowing billionaires (eg Elon Musk) to do whatever they want and dismantle long established government institutions, under the lie that it’s in the best interests of the country.

I’m honestly glad you haven’t heard about it, you must have done a better job than me of filtering out US news and rhetoric!

That’s wild, thanks for sharing

You incorrectly assume the grift products have to actually do anything. Just give them a few lights and a little fan at the back which spins for a few minutes to make it sound like it’s doing anything. Can be super cheap to make, it doesn’t even need a heating element!

I’ve built a couple of useful products which leverage LLMs at one stage or another, but I don’t shout about it cos I don’t see LLMs as something particularly exciting or relevant to consumers, to me they’re just another tool in my toolbox which I consider the efficacy of when trying to solve a particular problem. I think they are a new tool which is genuinely valuable when dealing with natural language problems. For example in my most recent product, which includes the capability to automatically create karaoke music videos, the problem for a long time preventing me from bringing that product to market was transcription quality / ability to consistently get correct and complete lyrics for any song. Now, by using state of the art transcription (which returns 90% accurate results) plus using an open weight LLM with a fine tuned prompt to correct the mistakes in that transcription, I’ve finally been able to create a product which produces high quality results pretty consistently. Before LLMs that would’ve been much harder!

Hello, you must be British

Me! I’ll still end up on Reddit occasionally from Google searches for stuff but I very much appreciate having a place to mindlessly scroll and read which isn’t capitalistic
