Uses for language models, rated by actual utility in my subjective experience:<li>Creative writing: FUCK no. Not even at gunpoint. It sucks so hard.</li><li>Coding: Surprisingly capable at remedial tasks, less good for innovation.</li><li>Image generation: Why would you want to do that in the first place? Isn't there enough porn in the world?</li><li>Reference: Marginal, but improving. Still not a patch on the old Google before it went to shit.</li><li>Music generation: I can't carry a tune in a bucket, and whatever the machine output wouldn't be from me anyway, so why bother?</li>
