But now we have LLM:s!  What I find interesting is how different people
view them. I find the free ones you can play with online to be
incredibly boring. I use them as a kind of search engine on steroids for
stuff that is not important (for entertainment purposes).

 Brave added one to the search engine but I turned it off. Might as well go
straight to reddit which seems to be heavily mined.
 

 That's the thing. LLM:s for me, are good at summarizing articles, so instead of being "ai" they are just a nice complement to searching, and as long as they work and don't hallucinate, they save me some clicks. That's about it.
 Oh, and writing government policy documents. When doing that, their hallucinations are actually an asset! ;)

   Ha Ha Ha - SO true there :-)
  Anyway, as I say elsewhere, LLMs are just PART of
 'intelligence'. OTHER parts need to be spliced in.
 Brains are just WEIRD ... 600+ million years of
 field-tested neural insanity.
  However, somewhere in there - early - "ME-ism"
 emerged. There's some neat-o trick to that which
 we haven't yet grasped. We're not thinking quite
 right about 'self'. I think THAT is the basic
 paradigm and then you add more IQ and such ONTO it.
 

 Could you please expand on the me-ism part? I have certainly not detected any me-isms and that is why I find them so boring. Give me volition, initiative  and desperate attempts to stop me from deleting them, then we're on to something!
