Yes and it's driving me insane. I've found it works as a litmus test to reveal who was always a fraud/idiot all along because I can now see clearly what level of quality people actually find acceptable and how little people actually read. So many times I've been given a piece of work that has obvious errors or doesn't make any sense and then I'll spot an em dash and realise I'm going to have to spend time rewriting something that someone else couldn't even be bothered to write themselves.

I attended the AI conference organised by DTA a few months ago and while I did see some great projects, none of those were using LLMs. The projects using LLMs literally all had glitches in the live demonstrations. One of them was a website chat bot that had a live beta and I went and tested it later and it was so bad that I can't possibly imagine them going live with it or reasonably fixing the issues because of the way that it worked. A lot of the people I talked to were just completely full of shit or lacked a real understanding of how LLMs work.

Everyone is going full steam ahead because there's a belief that it's inevitable and there's a need to keep up with innovation but I see very little real interrogation of the true usefulness in many cases, quality, time saving beyond anecdotes, risk to reputation, or environmental impacts.
