She’s actually not into him. Though it’s not so much a “joke” as it is “homicidal theft”.

Technology@lemmy.world•Gemini lies to user about health info, says it wanted to make him feel better— Though commonly reported, Google doesn't consider it a security problem when models make things upEnglish
51·14 hours agoActual AI would be more than “just math”, but LLMs aren’t AI, so the comparison is moot.
Now we’ve built a collection of simulated neurons, at a scale close to that of the human brain, and trained it on the entirety of the human language
We are not even close to anything of the sort. We’ve got a probability machine that’s mostly decent at previous collections of human language. The other two are much farther down the road (if they’re even possible) than you or the rest of the tech bros are trying to convince everyone else of.

To be clear, all llms “make things up” with every use - that’s their singular function. We need to stop imparting any level of sentience or knowledge onto these programs. At best, it’s a waste of time. At worst, it will get somebody killed.
Also, querying the program on why it fabricated something as if it won’t fabricate that answer as well is peak ignorance. “Surely it will output factual information this time!”

The current state of that dev team is…contentious to say the least. If I recall correctly three different studios have spawned, none on good terms with the others. Good game, though.

That’s exactly it. LLMs and their image counterparts have no innate or burgeoning knowledge as people tend to assume. Their singular, core function is to generate their output from literal random noise, like the static you used to see on TV. So the response to the same question will change because the random noise changed, not because the algorithm learned or reconsidered anything. And if you used the same noise, the answer would be identical. No knowledgeable or self-sufficient AI will ever evolve from that.
fyi, for hyperlinks you need text in the brackets to make it useable. It doesn’t work like the image embedding. Just posting the url as is should make it clickable as well, afaik.

I wouldn’t say “driven” or “polite”, but partially true, at least. Also, wasn’t the fediverse always supposed to be a conglomerated mess? That’s one of it’s defining features.

World News@lemmy.world•Briton shot by father in Texas after row about Trump was unlawfully killed, coroner rulesEnglish
14·7 days agoI’ve seen this a few times recently, and am wondering what authority do US coroners have to decide that a death was “unlawful”? Isn’t their job just determining cause of death, not handing out a verdict?












It’s uncanny.
