It’s actually good and proper to dogpile on people when there’s literally lives at stake.

This would include fascinating topics like “fully read a social media post before replying” and “question the ultimate agendas of media outlets, corporate public relations departments and of governments”.

It’s funny that I’ve gotten lots of replies but none answering the question that’s clearly stated as the first sentence.
People like to read parts of posts and then reply to posts as if it doesn’t contain anything else than the part they were interested in.

And even for the most optimal of use cases, code generation, which gives an LLM every possible advantage (huge amounts of self-similar training data with millions of iterations of the same problems and solutions, strictly deterministic symbol sequences in highly simplified languages), LLMs are starting to approach local maxima; they’re even regressing when context windows get too large (so more capable hardware doesn’t help).
I still strongly believe that they’re useless for 99% of tasks they’re marketed for and for the rest (like coding) there will be locally run solutions that are affordable.

It's not a bad representation of what my migraines look like though

I would like to remind people that two things can also be bad at the same time, for example EU law being overly broad and restrictive and a large company being a dick.
Totally possible 😂
