I don’t rely on the LLM to give me the answer.
So why are you assuming that I do, again? Aren’t I the one telling you that I do manual searches precisely because the search function is so hit or miss?
it’s not good for creative works.
What creative work? This is basic communication that we carefully outline first and then feed it to the LLM to spit out the same thing in formal language. Lol
How can I possibly be doing it wrong when the page it’s citing mentions nothing of what it’s taking about, or when it tells me to do something that we as a company do not do?
I’ve been doing this shit for 20 years now.
Welcome to the club.
it’s an extremely useful tool
Sure, for writing letters but not for searching which is what I’m taking about.
It’s not harder, though, it’s actually quite instant if you know what you’re doing. A lot of documentation is literally one single web page, and the majority that is not can be navigated with the regular search and ctrl+F just fine.
There’s no substitute to taking 40 minutes to get acquainted with the documentation to know what you need rather than trial & error your way through a problem blindly.
you could get an LLM to return you the correct page in some documentation
It’s unreliable and prone to errors, and I say that after using LLM-based searches for months at work. Too many times it confuses areas, makes stuff up, or cites some irrelevant page just to give any answer at all.
You may think you’re being clever, but that is hardly a reasonable comparison while also ignoring the glaring corporate irresponsibility underlying both.
Better question is, when did you lose basic keyword-based searching skills? I know you may want your answers on a platter but realize that there’s value in manual searches. Searching for something with LLMs on the page that you’re on is questionable on so many levels.
Not in my experience, but then again, I left a couple years ago so maybe they changed it when I wasn’t there.
I also have one! And it doesn’t work.
Japan was doing that a couple of years ago.
They know and don’t care.
Ok? He can go down that hole, but the programmers will congregate. I’d like to see him then.
Time to double down on the adblocks, then. I get it conceptually, but I still don’t understand this need for infinite growth at everyone’s expense.
I’ll say it. It Zucks.
I feel your pain. Welcome to Lemmy.
Money + downtime + not very smart?
I’m not a fan of how the post titles compete with the neon bars for my attention, but otherwise it looks nice.
Welp, I guess I’m all out of money for new tech. Time to travel or find a new hobby.
I’d be surprised if it didn’t happen at this point.
Yes, we are, but people hate hearing that by the looks of your downvotes. 🤷♂️
Thanks for that! I wonder if that still works because ever since they implemented the kernel-level anti-cheat, I’ve heard it’s become virtually impossible to install it on Linux.
Oh yeah. YOU are a fentanyl trafficker, and YOU are a fentanyl trafficker, and YOU are a fentanyl trafficker! 🎤 😃 👉
