    I’m working on something of an article to that effect, but… I also have other things going on, and worry that by the time I’ve hit all the key points and polished 'em up, it will be completely outdated. Obligatory lol.

    I guess a couple key points for that general LLM article would be:

    • Going in, it’s pretty dang important to understand exactly what a modern LLM is; what it’s strengths and weaknesses are. How they can vary widely in quality and usefulness depending on their engines and platforms you access.
    • Just like people who sound extremely sure of themselves, I think it’s geberally helpful to think of LLM’s as highly-opinionated friends who sometimes have the ability to be incredibly incisive and useful on certain matters, but can also be incredibly flawed, even upon very simple stuff.
    • Also hugely important based on service involved to get a feel for where they’re most reliable, and where they can be downright disastrous to rely upon.
