@remenca @sjuvonen I didn't say a machine could never match human intelligence, I said an LLM can't.

An LLM has no intelligence.

The simple fact of what it is and how it works means it will never stop "hallucinating," no matter how much processing power or data you throw at it.

This is mathematically incorrect and demonstrates a lack of understanding of what universal approximation means.

@remenca All an LLM does is resynthesize content from its training set that corresponds to words in the query it receives.

It understands nothing. It does no reasoning. It can't even use a calculator or look things up in a database, which much simpler and lower powered machines are able to do.

LLMs are incapable of intelligence BY DESIGN. They are literally not AI at all:

I am sorry mate, but this article all it does is just to frame the problem of hallucinations (which is being solved as we speak) as some interpretation of some guy about what is "bullshit". It does not talk about scaling laws, nor approximation, nor pac nor nothing. Please, do not embarass yourself citing articles you do not understand.

@remenca LLM's don't do any reasoning in the first place, so what they do can't be scaled up into "intelligence".

Pretty simple!
