This is the truth! The only way to make LLMs perform any job with quality 
and reliability is to hard code rules and off shore to africa job 
checkers.

Then, what you have is a statistical parrot coupled with yesterdays expert 
systems.

I do however give them a passing grade when it comes to generate 
government mandated bullsh*t documentation for businesses that no one ever 
reads. They excel at that! I've used it to generate all kinds of b.s. on 
behalf of clients, with the clear explanation that they must read it and 
make changes.

Needless to say, no one ever cared, got the green check mark in the 
process spreadsheet and everyone moved along happily. I think the auditor 
who has to read that b.s. might jump out of a window. On the other hand, 
he choose his own profession. ;)

This is the truth! Based on my dividends, a small setback would be good to 
release some nervous energy from the markets. Much preferable to havint 
doped markets for 2-3 years, and then a huge 30%-40% crash.
