honestly, the main use of LLMs is like agentic shit like cybersecurity shit, cause you have a pretty direct relationship between more agent resources -› more code bases searched for vulnerabilities and then able to quickly piece shit together to attack. that’s a damn niche thing (with big impact, but still), and yeah, the chat bot and image generation stuff is just parlor tricks to justify interest in it to the lay person

so, yeah, everyday person does not need LLMs

That it makes sense that Xi would be supportive of Deng while also improving upon the direction he took the CPC. I think my friend just felt that while market reform was needed for China, Deng’s policies did not need to be so laxxed towards corporations. “You didn’t need to let them dump waste wherever they wanted”.

I got an anarchist buddy who hates Deng for the implemention of the market reforms, but loves Xi for his work on stamping out corruption and focus on the ecosystem / fixing a lot of the issues with the market reforms under Deng
