Ahah I'm totally with you, I just personally know people that love it because they have never learned how to use a search engine. And these generalist generative AIs are trained on gobbled up internet basically, while also generating so many dangerous mistakes, I've read enough horror stories.

I'm in science and I'm not interested in ChatGPT, wouldn't trust it with a pancake recipe. Even if it was useful to me I wouldn't trust the vendor lock-in or enshittification that's gonna come after I get dependent on aa tool in the cloud.

A local LLM on cheap or widely available hardware with reproducible input / output? Then I'm interested.
