I would never ask any of these questions of an LLM (and I use and rely on LLMs multiple times a day), this is a job for a computer.
I would also never ask a coworker for this precise number either.
I would also never ask a coworker for this precise number either.
when are the long list of 'enterprise' coworkers, who have glibly and overconfidently answered questions without doing math or looking them up, going to be fired?
And, BTW, I thought that LLMs are computers too ;-0
Thinking its a computer makes you do dumb things with them that they simply have never done a good job with.
Build intuitions about what they do well and intuitions about what they don't do well and help others learn the same things.
Don't encourage people to have poor ideas about how they work, it makes things worse.
Would you ask an LLM a phone number? If it doesn't use a function call the answer is simply not worth having.
Then we wanted the computers to reason like humans, so we built LLMs.
Now we want the LLMs to do calculations really quickly.
It doesn't seem like we'll ever be satisfied.
