@coupland What is a deterministic answer? Things that dont change with time like demographic numbers?

@LotusHopper Questions that can be definitively answered and that require no interpretation nor change depending on your perspective.

"What's 2+2?" or "What year was the Battle of Hastings" or "What is Miley Cyrus' birthday?"

Questions like "what's the best pizza recipe" or "why is Iran/America/Russia so evil" are not well suited to LLMs.

@coupland @LotusHopper

what year something happened is a statement that requires a lot of interpretation and presuppositions

like, what is an event in the context? what calendar is used? what are the commonly agreed upon limits of the type of event?

just because interpretation seems easy to you and you don't recognise that it happens, doesn't mean it isn't necessary

there are no simple facts, because human language is quite complicated

@troglodyt @LotusHopper Sorry Troglodyt but that's a whole pile of pseudo-intellectual horseshit. There is zero... ZERO... ambiguity to asking what Miley Cyrus' birthday is or what year man landed on the moon. Come back to earth space man.

ok, looking at your feed and your nick i must make a jump and conclude that trying to make conversation with you is an absolute waste of time, you're much too gullible and already totally occupied by less sophisticated forces than my mind

good luck with your faiths little fellow
