So, not so great there.
Then recently I had to modernize a python app written by someone who no longer works for the organization and was circa python 3.6. Several of the key libraries no longer supported the interfaces being called and there was no documentation at all.
On a whim I asked an LLM to help modernize the code, file by file and it cut the effort in half.
So, pretty great there.
Hallucinations seem fundamental to how LLMs work now, so AI is probably still a ways off from being able to absorb responsibility for decisions like a human can.
I’m sure this comment will offend both pro and anti AI camps. :)
You can for example, do minimal input (some peppered phrases) and see a rich answer. More specificity and research on your own, brings it out to play. The designs appear to level their self to your own capabilities.
if you're a senior researcher that understands how to research, and you send a baby junior researcher off to do the work and did not give them tips or parameters to improve the research process, that's on you, not the junior.
