    LLM’s are not meant to do anything like playing a chess game

    They’re being sold as being able to play chess, though.

      LLM’s no they’re not.
      i mean, someone somewhere is trying to sell LLM’s that can tell the future, but no… they’re not meant to do that and nobody expected them to be able to (except delusional people who think they’re conscious)
      AI is godlike at chess though, just not chat AI
      ….
      you also can’t chat with an AI chess engine but nobody’s complaining about that.

      Nobody is making those claims. Or they would get sued for false advertising.

      People are interpreting as if chatbots are capable of playing chess, but that isn’t on the company.

      The claims those companies make are real. It are dumb features that are mostly useless, but the claims are not fake.

        Every single one of those scammers is making those claims, and worse, starting with calling their shit AI.

        They’re selling useless and harmful shit, they know they’re selling useless and harmful shit, and they plan to run away with the money the second the bubble starts to burst, without a single care for the state they’ll leave the internet and the economy in.

          you’re right to hate the AI hype and grift….
          the same thing happened with cryptocurrency and blockchain (still happening).
          it has great uses and is powerful new technology… but grifters take that to technologically illiterate people, inflate it and take their money.
          it seems like every AI company is a scam now though. They all advertise crazy unrealistic results and when you try it yourself, it sucks.
