[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 9837974, member: 18"] Yeah I saw this at work recently - colleague showed me an GenAI-driven workflow that basically went to a website, looked stuff up, and reported back. Three problems though: 1) It was incredibly slow. A human could do the same task in literally 30 seconds. Literally. This GenAI-driven bot took 10+ minutes. Sure 10 unattended minutes, but god knows how much power it must be eating up sitting there considering every web page for minutes. 2) Any time the website changed at all, it got confused, and the website changed a bit every few weeks. 3) It gave back incorrect results 100% of the time. This is the real killer. He was so impressed with the bot and I was like, but is that right? That doesn't look right. And he agreed, no, it isn't bringing back the correct info, but if you, a human, spend some time sorting through the info it's brought back, you'll find it's mixed in there. And how long does that take? About 30 seconds... bloody hell. So we've built this elaborate bot to bring us back a bunch of junk info really slowly so we can then look through the junk to find the real info, which would take about as long as just looking up the real info...
