I agree there is a lot of marketing BS around LLMs right now. But I would argue that they are quite useful for e.g. basic language and coding tasks and at least for me these are real-world use cases too.

The headline is misleading. By "real-world use" they mean using ChatGPT and Claude for street navigation in New York. Which is one very specific use-case.

What weird false belief did you have as a kid? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

I always thought cigarettes contain tar, as in the substance asphalt on the road is made from. It always felt weird to me, why would they put it in the cigarettes but I figured maybe they need it so the tobacco doesn't fall out or something.
