"Processing unstructured data is one of the most directly useful applications of Large Language Models."
I worked hard to syndicate event data from iCalendar feeds, but they were and still are scarce. Much real-world data lives inaccessibly in event posters; that's always felt wrong.
It also feels wrong (to techies) to make feeds from pictures of posters.
"That isn't data!"
But for normies it makes total sense.
"Of course it's data, I can see it plainly!" https://fedi.simonwillison.net/@simon/112243754613807997
