Scott Jenson argues that AI is more effective for "boring" tasks rather than complex ones, advocating for the use of small language models (SLMs) for straightforward applications like proofreading and summarization. He emphasizes that relying on these models for simple functions can lead to ethical training and lower costs, while suggesting that current uses of language models often exceed their capabilities. The focus should be on leveraging their strengths in language understanding rather than attempting to replace human intelligence.
The article provides an in-depth guide for designers on how to effectively utilize large language models (LLMs) in their work. It explores best practices, potential applications, and the implications of integrating LLM technology into the design process. The piece aims to empower designers by equipping them with knowledge about leveraging AI to enhance creativity and productivity.
