alt Hacker NewsI just mean that the image input probably didn't affect the output at all. Could have just told it "I'm an amateur doing bulbs and batteries and it doesn't work" and it would give the #1 search result on forums for that which is "did you strip your wire."
I feel like I'm in the audience at a magician show, except most of the audience is breathlessly amazed and doesn't understand how easily tricked they are.

This really underscores how so much LLM "intelligence" is based off of people's experiences that they wrote about. It saddens me somewhat to see that it has basically all been captured by corporations now, and perhaps in a few years there will be little point in knowing things yourself simply because the LLMs will have gotten so good that there is no point to wasting the extra effort. Of course, this might lead to the atrophy of people's thinking muscles and a dumber and more subservient populace, but does anyone really care? Judging by the meteoric rise in the capabilities of LLMs over the past five years, is it really naïve to expect most knowledge work to be obsolete in the next ten?
The other stuff in this thread about decompiling firmware is a lot more interesting to me, though, seeing as it used to be a fairly demanding but rewarding task that has now been "solved" by Claude. It's a magic trick that is a lot harder to pull off than the other things in this thread.
