Exploring LLMs for Data Synthesizing & Anonymization: looking for Insights on Current & Future Solutions
Don't get me wrong, LLMs are awesome but totally unsuited for what you are describing. Classic data science tools like faker will be better for the task in pretty much every aspect. They can generate synthetic datasets and anonymize existing ones faster and far more reliable than any LLM.
