Ask HN: What are white collar workers supposed to do in the face of LLM/ChatGPT?

4 pointsby kochover 2 years ago
Most computer-based office work is taking some input, making sense of it, and outputting some more human-centric transformation of it. Which is what chatgpt&#x2F;LLM does.<p>Financial analysts, lawyers &amp; legal aides, accountants, content creation &amp; marketing, sales, customer service, programmers, etc. etc.<p>This is most of what the middle class does, no? What are people supposed to do instead?

The issue is you can&#x27;t just send Chat GPT output to your clients if you&#x27;re aiming for accuracy and quality. It will be able to augment your job but not replace you.<p>Also, you can&#x27;t ask it questions like &quot;what happened in the market last week&quot; without compiling the information about &quot;last week&quot; and going through it. Then you have to read the output anyway and make sure it is accurate and what you want to send to a client.
