Wandering Adventure Party

@reading_recluse I have to disagree on one thing: I've used LLMs for complex social issues I faced in real-life in the past and they (in hindsight) correctly determined that it wasn't my fault or anything wrong with me. So for me, they improved my mental health in difficult times and successfully prevented me from getting depressed.

So there are definitely beneficial use cases for them. But they're also very overrated and love to hallucinate a lot and are unable to comprehend nuance in writing.

@cstross Well, that explains why every time I tried #AI for improving a text snippet, I was very disappointed.

It always wants to convince me that I should remove any uncommon sentence structures and replace them with generic ones, which often removes any personality from written text.

If you ask it to make a small addition to an existing text, it likes to rephrase everything in a more generic way and is unable to add a subtext layer. Honestly, it's just useless for writing in my opinion.
