    How does the LLM check the timestamps without a prompt? By continually prompting? In which case, you are the timer.

      It’s running in memory… I’m not going to explain it, just ask an AI if it exists when you don’t prompt it

        That’s not how that works.

        LLMs execute on request. They tend not to be scheduled to evaluate once in a while since that would be crazy wasteful.

          Edit to add: I know I’m not replying to the bad mansplainer.

          LLM != TSR

          Do people even use TSR as a phrase anymore? I don’t really see it in use much, probably because it’s more the norm than exception in modern computing.

          TSR = old techy speak, Terminate and Stay Resident. Back when RAM was more limited (hey and maybe again soon with these prices!) programs were often run once and done, they ran and were flushed from RAM. Anything that needed to continue running in the background was a TSR.

            Please tell me why you believe that the LLM keeps being executed on your chat even when the response is complete.

                Ohh, that makes sense.

                I wouldn’t have gotten that abbreviation without the explainer. Good on you for explaining it. Never heard it working in tech.
