It’s kind of easy to forget about or ignore any experience they might have if they’re asking questions like that. Sure, maybe it was a brain fart from a panicked intern who’s having orders barked at them from a powerful individual that they want to impress, but that doesn’t make it any better, does it?
Because to me it looks like someone asking to use an LLM to parse things that were created to specifically be parsed by machines. Looks like someone who doesn’t know what the fuck they’re talking about. I’m open to being educated on what that subtle question you’re referring to might be, and how this person is somehow experienced and being nuanced, just drop it on me.
I get it. He’s a traitor. He’s evil, and he should be in prison. The pitchforks are out and people want blood. I actually agree.
But to insinuate he’s a mouth breathing idiot that doesn’t know what LLMs or AI is, by ignoring the fact that he won prizes by solving problems that no one had solved before is just disingenuous. Oh, and that he solved it by creating his own ML models. But, yes he’s a complete moron, and anyone could have won that prize right? Certainly seems that everyone in this thread could have done it.
I’m just saying that if he’s smart enough do that, when no one else did, then I choose to believe he was asking a more specific question about if there’s any fine-tuned LLMs specifically for ETL, and less about “durr what is ai? <drool>”
Yes, even if he wants to use this magic LLM to speed run the US in to fascism to get a headpat from Papa Elon, it does not mean he drools over his keyboard, can’t figure out a microwave, and has no concepts of what’s LLMs are (despite, you know, creating his own custom ml models for fun…) I can hate him and what he’s doing and still be factual about his real accomplishments.
Yes, there are LLMs for that, you literally just have to Google “llm parse PDF”.
You could also use tesseract or any number of other solutions which probably work as well…
But an inexperienced kid is gonna act like an inexperienced kid
It’s using a shotgun instead of a drill.
Let’s give him access to government payroll!
Dangerously.
Doge aside, He’s a kid that won prizes for writing ml models to parse greek letters from unreadable ancient ashen scrolls. Inexperienced? You sure?
Did he tho?

Or he’s asking a more nuanced (or poorly worded) question than people in this thread are assuming.
… which would be?

I mean … this person works for the department of government EFFICIENCY, right?

I guess it’s just a dumb tweet question then. In not directly in the field and even I’m up to date in latest model benchmarks for tasks I need to do.
I don’t know anything about this kid other than the tweet and Elon likes him.
