… and neither does the author (or so I believe - I made them both up).

On the other hand, AI is definitely good at creative writing.

    Yeah, they operate very opaquely, so we can’t know the true cost, but based on what I can know with certainty given models I can run on my own machines, the numbers seem reasonable. In any case, that’s not really relevant to this discussion. Treat it as a hypothetical, then work out the math later to figure out where we want to be and what threshold we should be setting.

    • For me the threshold is zero. LLMs are dead ends and cannot really be improved much beyond where they are now, complete with hallucinations and techbrodude confidence.

      The billions being wasted on LLMs are better spent on less idiotic technologies less likely to destroy trust in information sources.
