    Yes, there are LLMs for that, you literally just have to Google “llm parse PDF”.

    You could also use tesseract or any number of other solutions which probably work as well…

    But an inexperienced kid is gonna act like an inexperienced kid

      Doge aside, He’s a kid that won prizes for writing ml models to parse greek letters from unreadable ancient ashen scrolls. Inexperienced? You sure?

        It’s kind of easy to forget about or ignore any experience they might have if they’re asking questions like that. Sure, maybe it was a brain fart from a panicked intern who’s having orders barked at them from a powerful individual that they want to impress, but that doesn’t make it any better, does it?

          Or he’s asking a more nuanced (or poorly worded) question than people in this thread are assuming.

            … which would be?

            Because to me it looks like someone asking to use an LLM to parse things that were created to specifically be parsed by machines. Looks like someone who doesn’t know what the fuck they’re talking about. I’m open to being educated on what that subtle question you’re referring to might be, and how this person is somehow experienced and being nuanced, just drop it on me.

        I guess it’s just a dumb tweet question then. In not directly in the field and even I’m up to date in latest model benchmarks for tasks I need to do.

        I don’t know anything about this kid other than the tweet and Elon likes him.
