Because you had a specific goal in mind, knew what you were doing, knew about the different heatmap implementations available and gave precise instructions. You could probably have written this by hand yourself and it just would have taken a bit longer to do.

Problems come up when you have people who don't know what they're doing giving vague instructions to the LLM, and then blindly trusting the output. For instance if you said "draw a heatmap of $DATA" who knows what it would have come back with? it may well have tried to use the deprecated google api because there are likely a lot of examples online and in the LLM's training data.

LLMs are great when they're used to augment people who are already skilled in the art, and can generally help them save time doing a lot of the repetitive stuff. They're not some magic wand allowing someone with zero experience to achieve great results.

People are often wrong too...
The problem is that we are used to machines being used to do things that machines are good at - eg for predefined math calculations a computer is expected to reliably and quickly get the correct answer every time.

The problems being targeted by LLMs are not so well defined, so errors can be made wether its done by a human or an LLM. But people are used to the traditional problems solved by computers and expect everything to be the same.

Instead of assuming an LLM is a reliable machine that follows a rigid process and produces reliable output every time, treat it like a human employee and subject its results to the same processes - ie review, quality control etc. Of course then you won't get the massive cost savings that you imagined by replacing employees with machines.

Good use of LLM will typically augment existing skilled employees, not replace them.

Real intelligence also gets things wrong, people are also subject to bias, and will try to cover their ass once they realise they've fucked up etc.
Thats why people's work gets quality controlled and reviewed etc, and anything machine generated should be subjected to similar processes.

This.
Credit options are usually convenient, and often have other benefits like interest free periods, cashback or airmiles etc. Lots of people use them who could easily afford to pay up front.
If you end up paying the same, but get some kickback or defer payment until later why wouldnt you?
A lot of the users aren't people who can't manage their money, it's the opposite - people who know how to manage things optimally.

A "signature" is just an arbitrary mark, and is in itself extremely archaic. Many people simply make some random swipes, doing it differently every time and noone cares.

It would be better if those people didn't write by hand, and use an electronic method instead.

Plus their launch vehicles leave a lot more debris than western or even soviet/russian launch vehicles.

Pretty much this...

I had to learn cursive in school, and i've never used it since leaving school.
About the only time i ever write anything by hand is official forms, and for those you are expected to write legibly and often in uppercase.

It's also extremely annoying when someone else writes things by hand and you're expected to read them, it's often extremely difficult to read and leads to errors.

There are lots of insiders - both in russia itself, and especially in the occupied territory which russia considers its own.

While the US can afford to run nuclear tests, russia really can't. Their economy is already under massive strain due to the war and associated sanctions, trying to simultaneously engage in an arms race with america could result in economic collapse similar to what happened to the soviet union.

Because what use do you have for cash at home?
And if you're going out somewhere, you can visit an ATM on the way.
And even if you are going out, how often do you actually need cash? The vast majority of places will accept cards, mobile payments or bank transfers etc.

I guess this cash delivery service only works if you're poor, if you're rich they're going to steal it.

Retail stores don't float around, they know the taxes which are applicable to the location of each individual store.

It needs to be inconvenient and convoluted enough that clueless users can't be tricked into doing it via phishing.

There are plenty of Android games already in existence which would run natively.
