    The thing LLMs can effectively replace is Google search (and other search engines). Microsoft is shoving copilot down your throat because shoving Bing up your ass was harder when it was already full of other shit.

      This statement is true on zero known planets.

        I hear the youths are using ChatGPT like we used Google when we were their age, but they must be way better than I am, because when I ask it things I don’t already know, sometimes it gives me truth and sometimes lies.

            Do you sometimes read what you wrote and apply some sort of self-reflection?

          it will be the closest thing to a mind meld we have for sharing information.

          Sorry, the only people who get to talk about mind melds are the authors of Kirk/Spock erotica. I don’t make the rules.

          … Wait, I’m a mod. I do make the rules!

          who in the fuck do you think you’re fooling. all of us have used LLMs for search, not by choice. it’s a garbage technology for that use case (and every other use case) and it didn’t take enshittification for it to get there — it is the enshittification.
