        And honestly you can be better at writing prompts and be proud of that too, but given that AI is built entirely on using other people’s work, you’re not allowed to be upset about people using it. Don’t post them publicly if you really care.

        Fond of google 2000-2005 (ish).

        Back before enshitification, when could use extra criteria to reliably filter and refine the search, and could go dozens of pages deep into search results. Back before it got nerfed and censored.

        Now have to wrestle a dozen different websearch engines.

    People thinking they’re AI experts because of prompts is like claiming to be an aircraft engineer because you booked a ticket.

      I have had in person conversations with multiple people who swear they have fixed the AI hallucination problem the same way. “I always include the words ‘make sure all of the response is correct and factual without hallucinating’”

      These people think they are geniuses thanks to just telling the AI not to mess up.

      Thanks to being in person with a rather significant running context, I know they are being dead serious, and no one will dissuade them from thinking their “one weird trick” works.

      All the funnier when, inevitably, they get screwed up response one day and feel all betrayed because they explicitly told it not to screw up…

      But yes, people take “prompt engineering” very seriously. I have seen people proudly display their massively verbose prompt that often looked like way more work than to just do the things themselves without LLM. They really think it’s a very sophisticated and hard to acquire skill…

        “Do not hallucinate”, lol… The best way to get a model to not hallucinate is to include the factual data in the prompt. But for that, you have to know the data in question…

            That’s incorrect because in order to lie, one must know that they’re not saying the truth.

            LLMs don’t lie, they bullshit.

              It’s incredible by now how many LLM users don’t know that it merely predicts the next most probable words. It doesn’t know anything. It doesn’t know that it’s hallucinating, or even what it is saying at all.

                One things that is enlightening is why the seahorse LLM confusion happens.

                The model has one thing to predict, can it produce a spexified emoji, yes or no? Well some reddit thread swore there was a seahorse emoji (along others) so it decided “yes”, and then easily predicted the next words to be “here it is:” At that point and not an instant before, it actually tries to generate the indicated emoji, and here, and only here it falls to find something of sufficient confidence, but the preceding words demand an emoji so it generates the wrong emoji. Then knowing the previous token wasn’t a match, it generates a sequence of words to try again and again…

                It has no idea what it is building to, it is building results the very next token at a time. Which is wild how well that works, but lands frequently in territory where previously generated tokens back itself into a corner and the best fit for subsequent tokens is garbage.

        I didn’t think prompt engineering was a skill until I read some of the absolute garbage some of my ostensibly degree-qualified colleagues were writing.

      Reminds me of the very early days of the web, where you had people with the title “webmaster”. When you looked deeper into the supposed skillset, it was people that knew a bare minimum of HTML and the ability to manage a tree of files?

      I’ll never forget being at an ATM and overhearing a conversation between two women in their 30s behind me - the one woman tells the other - “I’ve been thinking about what I want to do and I think I want to be a webmaster”. It just sounded like a very casual choice and one about making money, and not much deeper than that.

      This was in 1999 or so. I thought - man, this industry is so fucked right now - we have hiring managers, recruiters, etc…that have almost no idea of the difference in skillsets between what I do (programming, architecture, networking, database, and then trying to QA all of that and keep it running in production, etc.) and people calling themselves “webmasters”.

      Sure enough, not long after, the dotcom bubble popped. It was painful for everyone (even people that kept their distance from the dotcom thing to an extent) without question, whether you had skills or no. But I don’t think roles like “webmaster” did very well…

    There’s people on Youtube who teach you how to take a video’s transcript, use it to generate an AI video and upload it to Youtube.

    And they’re upset people are taking transcripts of their videos, generating AI videos and uploading them.

    Just… Just take a minute to contemplate that. It’s amazing.

      Yep.

      I saw a vid not long ago going over some of the drama involved in that, a few specific people.

      We’ve gone past no self awareness into levels of negative self awareness that… are basically just actually breaking the fabric of semantic reality.

      … Its another good day to be an absurdist.

    This is bait. She’s trying to lure sloppers into checking her posts. Someone is stealing her prompts? Oh boy, they must be really good then!

    Anything to get them clicks.

    Is there something like “r/SelfAwareWolves” on Lemmy? “Creating your own prompts is actually easier than copying someone else’s work!” so close yet so far from self awareness…

      Do not underestimate the power of stupid.

      Especially in this era of atrophying cognition by prompting LLMs to do the thinking.
