Why would anyone use an LLM as calculator?
That just doesn’t make sense.
It is like using a calculator as typewriter because it can spell 80085.
To waste electric energy. All those power plants produce immense amounts of energy that needs to be consumed. If we didn’t have LLMs, the pollution of those plants would be for nothing. At least now, there is an attempt to put it in good use.
Well, there is a use case.
I don’t know much about statistics. I can (i assume) as the ai questions in natural language that I would otherwise have to research how to calculate.
Of course, I may get a result, but I won’t be any smarter. If that was the goal, then great.
So what you are saying is, my car is a typewriter?
Microsoft might agree with this.
Yes, they can sell your driving habits to insurance companies, so yes. What was the question?
I did this with my car when I got to that point and sent it to my girlfriend, but I photoshopped it so it said I was going over 100. Anyway I thought it was funny.
I was in the car with my missus, every 2 seconds she was making sure I hadn’t missed the big moment. She’s a good egg.
Keep her!
Heh heh 80085
High brow humour indeed
