@StarkRG@myside-yourside.net @futurebird@sauropods.win @anonymouspl@expressional.social @Landa@graz.social @cabel@social.panic.com LLMs are highly useful in the field of trying to translate animal communication into something we can understand, and significant advances have been made in this area – this in turn will allow us to stand a chance of having the slight possibility of maybe being able to have a system in place to attempt to communicate with aliens, when they land (once we’ve hidden all our QWERTY keyboards or they’ll piss themselves laughing). That’s about the only honest use for them that I can see, though.

@u0421793@toot.pikopublish.ing @futurebird@sauropods.win @Landa@graz.social @cabel@social.panic.com @anonymouspl@expressional.social Don't take this as me saying you're wrong, but I don't really see how something which contains no information about meaning of our own languages could be used to uncover the meaning of an unknown language. LLM based translations are already very not good, and that's between languages we already have translations for and are all created by human minds besides.
