The Evaluation of GenAI Capabilities to Implement Professional Tasks by Yaroslav Kouzminov, Ekaterina Kruchinskaia

“…In this way we conceptualize the most recent problem of LLMs as the general trend of mistakes even in the core of knowledge and non-causality of mistake via the complexity of question, as the mistake can be named as an accident and be everywhere as the most limitation of professionalism. At their current stage of development, LLMs are not widely used in a professional context, nor have they replaced human workers. …”
