Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

Discord builds products with generative AI quickly by identifying suitable use cases early and then prototyping with off-the-shelf LLMs. It evaluates prompts deeply before deploying at scale. Discord leans towards using off-the-shelf LLMs before thinking about using self-hosted ones because it saves engineering resources. Often, if the target problem can't be solved with GPT-4, then it probably can't be solved yet with generative AI at all.
