Because search engines (Google in particular) have absolutely failed me, I'm gonna crowd source this:
I'm looking for long-form blog posts on the state of #AI today. I don't mind if they get a bit technically, I'm just trying to get a deeper understanding of what #llms can do, how they work, their limitations and potential. I feel like most of what I've been exposed to is either overly optimistic takes (which I generally find off-putting) and the pessimistic takes which appeal to my cynicism (unfortunately). But I'm trying to be more open-minded, now.
I've seen a few talks on YouTube, one from Andrej Karpathy on his channel, and another one by Jodie Burchell on GOTO conferences which I think were pretty good. I'm just tired of being a non-believer who can't properly explain from a technical perspective why I don't believe other than the fact that I've tried to use LLMs for actual complex tasks and even the almighty Claude seems to crumble under real pressure
