My honest take is that AI has a lot of potential, but very different from what is being hyped, and perhaps not useful to the vast majority of people who just seem to want a way to use their brain less and less.

My specific case is related with research in mathematical physics. Even last year, all llms were basically useless to me. This year, I constantly use them for brainstorming and producing boilerplate proofs of simple (but useful) lemmas. Of course, I supervise the output carefully, but I am now sufficiently able to optimise my pipeline in such a way that checking is faster than producing everything from scratch myself.

I strongly believe that there are brilliant people doing research in AI now, and this will result in AI (not only llms) being more and more useful for creative people.

The elephant in the room, however, is the issue of regulating the use of AI and the companies developing and selling AI solutions. This, I reckon, will be a total shitshow.

Hi! Glad to be "back", even if later than I would have liked.

Hi! Thanks for the information, it seems like a very interesting place where to pass some time. I'll definitely check it out ;-)

Hi! Humble I'll be, study I will ;-)

Hi! Since I didn't understand my bio would have been a contribution people may comment to, and since you commented first, I got curious and looked at your bio and thus at your website: your posters are extremely tasteful, chapeau!
