We've tried that for decades, and look where it's gotten us.

Policy wonks and lawyers have run America into the ground with reckless spending and forever wars.

I would venture that introducing fresh ideas and technologists with first principles thinking will yield better results.

Genuinely don't know why anyone would use it when you have perplexity, gemini, chatGPT search, etc. at your disposal.

but those products that I pay for aren't vehicles for advertising and I don't think Google would ever try to make them that.

Advertising is 80% of Google's business. If you think those things aren't being factored into their ads model.... Idk what to tell you.

Yes because undocumented migrants are highly motivated to pay back the loan versus making a bunch of money and going back to their country of origin.

"healthcare, education, housing, and food were secured for all."

Ah yes all of this provided to you by Big Government, who can at a whim withdraw these services if you are found to engage in WrongThink.

We already have seen Western governments like Canada financially banning grandmothers who donated to a trucker protest or the UK imprisoning people for tweets.

Do you really want a bunch of DC politicians to have the power of life and death, not to mention access to swaths of capital that they will inevitably use to engorge and enrich themselves?

Your 600k in taxes will go into the pockets of various interest groups that markup their goods and services because they know Uncle Sam will foot the bill.

1. Content Generation:

LLMs can be used to generate high-quality, human-like content such as articles, blog posts, social media posts, and even short stories. Businesses can leverage this capability to save time and resources on content creation, and improve the consistency and quality of their online presence.

2. Customer Service and Support:

LLMs can be integrated into chatbots and virtual assistants to provide fast, accurate, and personalized responses to customer inquiries. This can help businesses improve their customer experience, reduce the workload on human customer service representatives, and provide 24/7 support.

3. Summarization and Insights:

LLMs can be used to analyze large volumes of text data, such as reports, research papers, or customer feedback, and generate concise summaries and insights. This can be valuable for businesses in fields like market research, financial analysis, or strategic planning.

4. HR Candidate Screening:

Use case: Using LLMs to assess job applicant resumes, cover letters, and interview responses to identify the most qualified candidates. Example: A large retailer integrating an LLM-based recruiting assistant to help sift through hundreds of applications for entry-level roles.

5. Legal Document Review:

Use case: Employing LLMs to rapidly scan through large volumes of legal contracts, case files, and regulatory documents to identify key terms, risks, and relevant information. Example: A corporate law firm deploying an LLM tool to streamline the due diligence process for mergers and acquisitions.
