@TheoTheFurry_@funnyToasty I mean that's fair, but id say it's more of a risk when it comes to explaining things you feed to it, the less niche it is the less risk of hallucinations you get
@TheoTheFurry_@funnyToasty so you don't believe it can help you understand certain things by explaining the concept to you in whatever way you want, because of the risk of hallucinations?
@TheoTheFurry_@funnyToasty if it helps you understand and see things in a different way, does it matter if it hallucinated some things along the way? even more so if the way you understood it is correct?
@TheoTheFurry_@funnyToasty I understand what you mean, my point is that it can point you in the right direction more often than not which will result you in being able to verify what it says, maybe it lets you see the algorithm in a different way, one you understand and now u see what the algo does
@TheoTheFurry_@funnyToasty I mean, as it gets better it will hallucinate less, this skepticism would be valid back in 2023 but idk so much now. personally there's a wall from which it stops being useful and you're better off just reading the docs
@TheoTheFurry_@funnyToasty not really redundant, it just really depends. for example maybe you're trying to understand what an algorithm does and there isn't many explanations you understand online, so you ask it to walk you through it or explain it in a different way
@TheoTheFurry_@funnyToasty Sometimes it really isn't an exaggeration when the topic is already niche (game maker isn't so niche), I've already seen many people confirm this
@TheoTheFurry_@funnyToasty That issue just sort of has to do with you being cautious and taking everything it says with a grain of salt, maybe the AI hallucinated a lot of stuff it told you but it will point you in the right direction more often than not
@DreamerP120@CkarasuStream@funnyToasty local LLM specifically for code explanations makes the environmental concerns kind of null though, not sure about the plagiarism issue
@TheoTheFurry_@funnyToasty this person was using it to understand how something works though? only difference is that they didn't waste hours of their life skimming through the internet to find good enough explanations and examples
