This.100%. As people often lucky enough to work in niche sectors where users care to about the tiniest details we forget sometimes the majority of "stuff" out there exists without a soul already. Think of boring document templates, shop signs, cheap clothing designs, etc. And to he honest AI will probably raise the bar for all that stuff by a lot. Ofc like you mentioned it'll sometimes lead to misleading content (eg made up food pictures in menus), but if that happens that'll just be a byproduct of the service provider and consumers not caring enough to make that have an impact on the underlying business.

It should become a win/win mechanism where communities are rewarded for high quality, human driven validation of LLMs, and vendors gain for bragging rights about their models being highly-skilled-human-approved. Still don't know why this isn't becoming a thing.

The only way to build a non toxic company is to have a good culture of cherry picking non toxic individuals all the way from the board of investors.

> We could change the fs layer to memcached but so far it's working great.

This so much. (Ab)Using a db table as a k/v store + the FS can do so much before even considering paying the price of setting up a dedicated caching store. I’ve fought countless foes in the engineering world when proposing solutions like yours just because (incompetent) people feel like caching should live in its dedicated store.

Tbh I'll wait for first party LLM providers to build this kind of stuff. If they're not first class citizens they end up corrupting the workflow more than enriching it.

Incredibile how web development fell to the point of people making a big deal out of a repository of working examples of UI components.

Chi-fi IEMs. People have no idea what sound quality can be achieved under 100$.

It's also a way to prevent LLMs to get trained on their data without their consent.
