Ask HN: Books for LLMs

1•me3meme•1y ago
LLMs are weak in many fields, for example programming in prolog, so people provide the documentation to the LLM in order to avoid some hallucinations. It seems clear that it would be better to have books available tailored for LLMs for example containing warnings about use of words. (In prolog the thread library is library(thread) not library(threads). So there should be a github for LLMs and prior to prompting you give the url to the LLM to prepare for the concrete task.
