          Haha, yea I’m familiar with it(always heard it called the Barnum effect though it sounds like they are the same thing), but this isn’t a fortune cookie-esque, meyers-briggs response.

          In this case it actually summarized my post(I guess you could make the case that my post is an opinion that’s shared by many people–so forer-y in that sense), and to my other point, it didn’t misunderstand and tell me I was envisioning LLMs sending emails back and forth to each other.

          Either way, there is this general tenor of negativity on Lemmy about AI (usually conflated to mean just LLMs). I think it’s a little misplaced. People are lumping the tech I’m with the hype bros- Altman, Musk, etc. the tech is transformative and there are plenty of valuable uses for it. It can solve real problems now. It doesn’t need to be AGI to do that. It doesn’t need to be perfect to do that.
