- Comment on Yea well it still can't have an existential crisis like humans can! Take that! 1 day ago:
Thinking is what humans do. We hold concepts in our working memory and use stored memories that are related to evaluate new data and determine a course of action.
LLMs predict the next correct word in their sentence based on a statistical model. This model is developed by “training” with written data, often scraped from the internet. This creates many biases in the statistical model. People on the internet do not take the time to answer “i dont know” to questions they see. I see this as at least one source of what they call “hallucinations.” The model confidently answers incorrectly because that’s what it’s seen in training.
The internet has many sites with reams of examples of code in many programming languages. If you are working on code that is of the same order of magnitude of these coding examples, then you are within the training data, and results will generally be good. Go outside of that training data, and it just flounders. It isn’t capable and has no means of reasoning beyond its internal statistical model.

You seem upset by my comment, which i dont understand at all. Im sorry if I’ve offended you. I don’t have a bias against LLMs. They’re good at talking. Very convincing. I dont need help creating text to communicate with people, though.
Since you mention that this is helping you in your free time, then you might not be aware how much less useful it is in a commercial setting for coding.
I’ll also note, since you mentioned it in your initial comment, LLMs dont think. They can’t think. They never will think. Thats not what these things are designed to do, and there is no means by which they might start to think if they are just bigger or faster. Talking about AI systems like they are people makes them appear more capable than they are to those that dont understand how they work.

It gave you the wrong answer. One you called absurd. And then you said “Really good stuff.”
Not to get all dead internet, but are you an LLM?
I dont understand how people think this is going to change the world. Its like the c suite folks think they can fire 90% of their company and just feed their half baked ideas for making super hero sequels into an AI and sell us tickets to the poop that falls out, 15 fingers and all.

These need to be hung separately. Different walls. Or at least with a sizeable space between them.

- Comment on Why do people like the Punisher comics? 1 month ago:
Well, I’m glad there’s so much here to learn about the comic in all the great comments. I really thought we were gonna talk about why there are so many cars with punisher decals and the like.
If OP wants to know why Punisher is plastered on so many cars, it’s because of bigotry.

Yeah, I know, man. I keep hearing people talking about this guy that loves tacos getting mad because there were no tacos at a parade… or something like that? Or the people in the parade ate their tacos wrong? I don’t know. None of this stuff makes sense to me either.

This is not a real interaction. Dude is basically saying “hey guys, imagine if I got a girlfriend, and she found out im a 4chan shirposter… that’d be sweet… no wait I did get a girlfriend… Envy me nerds!”

Imma bump this. I want this to be the size of the protests, but unless I have a reliable source for it, in this day and age, you almost have to assume everything you see could be fake.
- Comment on science never ends 3 months ago:
Having things be unprovable in a body of models would make it not a 100% correct body of models. You know it’d be… incomplete. That’s what it means, we’ve mathematically proven you cannot prove everything that is true.
NFLS is about whether a particular claim is testable, and can therefore productively be debated (as in I’m not debating whether there is a teapot orbiting earth). The way you’ve attempted to combine these two ideas is odd.
- Comment on science never ends 3 months ago:
And by Godel’s Incompleteness theorems, that body of models can never be 100% correct.

Maybe they could replace that with a noose that comes down next to the oxygen. Then, if you get claustrophobic, you get off the plane any time you want.

Did you enjoy the video? I subbed.
I agree, but I’m gonna watch entertaining videos with information I find useful. I’m not watching this, or reading the news, to try and convince a Trumper to change their mind. I have a family of my own to keep safe. They can worry about themselves.
- Comment on Does 'attempted murder' require a viable method? 6 months ago:
A crime is any action that violates a law. If the law says it’s illegal to pick your nose, then mining gold makes you a criminal.
Law is a human invention. It’s not discovered like mathematics, it’s created. Corner cases often make no sense and are simply not enforced. If they were, we’d see a lot of jury nullification in the long run.

The latter if I had to guess. This is some French revolution type of radicalization. The wealthy are radicalizing their victims. Hard to empathize.
