Just one or all of them? /s

But is it convincing enough to attend meetings for me

Or family reunions.

...Asking for a friend.

Ugh someone recently sent me LLM-generated meeting notes for a meeting that only a couple colleagues were able to attend. They sucked, a lot. Got a number of things completely wrong, duplicated the same random note a bunch of times in bullet lists, and just didn’t seem to reflect what was actually talked about. Luckily a coworker took their own real notes, and comparing them made it clear that LLMs are definitely causing more harm than good. It’s not exactly the same thing, but no, we’re not there yet.

Wait until you hear about doctors using AI to summarize visits 😎

All the above would apply to doctor visit notes. Would you find that helpful?

Plus, they can hallucinate phrases or entire sentences

Asking the important questions

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Imagine sitting down with an AI model for a spoken two-hour interview. A friendly voice guides you through a conversation that ranges from your childhood, your formative memories, and your career to your thoughts on immigration policy. Not long after, a virtual replica of you is able to embody your values and preferences with stunning accuracy.

Okay, but can it embody my traumas?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago

Maybe some of the symptoms of the traumas that you exhibited during the interview.

I'm pretty sure we already explored this timeline in a black mirror episode

Great. Now I can see first hand how annoying I am 🤔

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 hours ago

I like you.

I actually have wanted to try this out to see how accurate it can actually be. I already have conversations with myself, so I can truly compare the reality to a LLM. It's actually weird that even the supposed "unlocked and able to generate anything from anything" tools I've found still don't let you just input direct forum posts and shit to use. Though, I can totally understand why; most people probably aren't gonna use it with their own shit, but someone else's.
