LARGE LANGUAGE MODELS ARE DRUNK AT THE WHEEL

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

The current hype around LLMs like ChatGPT risks obscuring the actual limitations of the technology and could potentially foster a counterproductive boom-and-bust cycle within the tech industry. While LLMs excel at producing human-like text, they cannot reason, understand truth, or autonomously solve problems. They are also prone to hallucinations (i.e., they lie) and unpredictable behavior. Despite this, businesses are rushing to integrate LLMs in often unproductive ways.
