Yeah, its pretty wild! I think one of the benefits, but also potential risks, with LLMs, is you can just point them at anything without a lot of expertise.

Building an SVM isn't a tricky job, but you probably need a data scientist involved, and to think carefully about a labeled dataset.

I think we're seeing the modelling equivalent of something like electron apps. Where they waste a tonne of resources, but make an easier developement experience.

Will be interesting to see how much or little this changes with LLM costs.

I have seen Phd in stats validating models with data the models have been trained on. And I don’t live in a country with dubious universities.

So between llm and pseudo experts, at this stage, I prefer to go with a LLM.

Well not anymore... You can just get AI to build it.

		True I guess. I think most companies would at least want sign off from someone who's heard of SVMs that it isn't doing something mad. Just like, LLMs can build web back ends, but I'd want a security professional to give it some kind of thumbs up. Especially if a lot of money rides on it.
