I mean just throw in a bunch of stuff you already liked, and then ask it to find similar stuff… Or just ask for a genre of stuff like “Space themed show with a lot of politics” (Assuming you didn’t already know that, then voila, it spits out: Expanse)

If it fucks up and give you something totally not what you were looking for, there’s not much harm besides a small bit of your time. Its fictional media anyways, just don’t go looking for news or medical advice lol, avoid treating it as a truth machine and its not that bad…

Okay sure you can hate the corporate that is gonna do evil shit with these tech, but the tech itself still kinda useful… (maybe we’ll get some very advanced and ethically made FOSS “AI”/LLM in the future, who knows)

    There’s plenty of good use cases for LLMs. The most devout haters simply refuse to acknowledge that because giving even an inch suggests they might need to give another, and it starts to chip away at their binary worldview where things can be neatly labeled good or bad with very little nuance in between.

    As is with most technology, it has its limits. It can be used for both good and bad. Some people find them genuinely useful tools and they’ve helped a ton of people, but the opposite is also true. There’s also valid criticism about the energy demands, environmental damage, and so on. It’s a messy subject that can be approached from many perspectives. Our current online environments simply don’t reward nuance, so you only hear from the extremes.
