A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

No, because they don't do math. If the LLM calls a script to do the math and just formats the input it might get accurate results consistently... but you just invented a machine to press calculator buttons for you at that point which is hilariously energy inefficient. This is unacceptable from a cost and reliability standpoint. If you're familiar with enterprise reliability metrics you'd weep at the thought of a multistage process where each step had a single 9 and no visibility to underlying model tuning that can change outputs in wildly unexpected ways.
