I was using an LLM at work on Friday (as my corporate overlords insist upon), and got a refusal to convert a charlie foxtrot of html into markdown because... copyright.

The irony nearly gave me an anyurism.
I pointed out that this was clearly fair use, but also, the source document was labeled CC-BY-SA.
Obviously it apologized, told me I was absolutely right, and did what I asked, but... wow.

@Retreival9096 I mean, I have tooling that will just let me edit both sides of the conversation history in order to gaslight the model (had to do this earlier in the week for some CyBeR) so such things only slightly slow me down.

@ryanc The other week I was trying to get it to spit out a boilerplate REST API template, and the damn thing kept saying it was too similar to other people's code so it wouldn't do it. Like ... There's only so many different ways to write an API template. It's like "make a chocolate chip cookie recipe with flour, sugar, baking soda, chocolate chips and a pinch of salt". There's not really that many ways to switch up a chocolate chip cookie recipe.

@ryanc One shouldn't need to argue with ones tools. Curse at them, sure, but not argue.

The model will always insist it is right, until you stand up to the lies.
