@eniko This hits the nail on the head IMO. Too many people think of LLMs as "limited artificial intelligence" (mostly due to marketing, including how everyone calls them "AI"), not enough think about them as "plausible text generators"... there *is* no internal state which reflects whether or not it "knows" a particular fact

@eniko See also: the scam artist who has been telling everyone that "full self driving" is one year away every year since 2016 but whose engineers hasn't been able to, and will never be able to, "iron out the kinks" which make fully autonomous vehicles death machines in everything but the most ideal conditions

@mort Some of the responses I've got from AI proponents have been... interesting.

In the Chinese curse sense.

@mkj @mort @eniko There is no such curse in Chinese.

However, full self-driving cars are a thing that will always be decades ahead of Tesla.

@enoch_exe_inc Dang. I learned something new today, then! Thank you!

@mkj @enoch_exe_inc @mort @eniko It would be redundant anyway. The history of China is as *fascinating* as it is long and unending. The times have and shall always be interesting.

@enoch_exe_inc @mkj @mort @eniko ah damn it, I liked that curse! It'd also be perfect for the us as well for the next few years if the horcrux wins tomorrow 😂

@UkeBLCatboy @enoch_exe_inc @mkj @mort @eniko Fun fact: I tweeted this saying at Hillary Clinton after she “lost” the 2016 election.

@UkeBLCatboy @enoch_exe_inc @mkj @mort @eniko Canadian here. Ain’t much I can do about it except watch…and threaten to invade if things do not go as well as they should.

UkeBLCatboy

@enoch_exe_inc @mkj @mort @eniko with all due respect, I don't think Canada could invade the US much D:
