Personally, I use LLMs to write code that I would have never bothered writing in the first place. For example, I hate web front-end development. I'm not a web dev, but sometimes it's cool to show visual demos or websites. Without LLMs, I wouldn't have bothered creating those, because I wouldn't have had the time anyway, so in that case, it's a net positive.

I don't use LLMs for my main pieces of work exactly due to the issues described by the author of the blogpost.

Not true. VAT does way less economic damage. Tariffs introduce massive distortions in the market.

As an anecdotal data point, I’m happier than in my early and mid 20s, and I have hope for my 30s.

This is not what hallucination means in the pre-LLM machine learning literature.

It’s used incorrectly. Hallucination has (or used to have) a very specific meaning in machine learning. All hallucinations are errors but not all errors are hallucinations.

What do you mean by “true” RL?

The way I see it hallucination and factual error are particular cases of incorrect answer.
