LLMs are quite impressive as chatbots all things considered. The conversations with them are way more realistic and almost as funny as the ones with the IRC markov chain my friend made as a freshman CS student.
Of course, out bot’s training data only included the IRC channel’s logs of a few years and the Finnish Bible we later threw in for shits and giggles. A training set of approximately zero terabytes in total.
LLMs are less a marvel of machine learning algorithms (though I admit they might play a part) and more one of data scraping. Based on their claims, they have already dug through the vast majority of publicly accessible world wide web, so where do you go from there? Sure, there are a lot of books that are not on the web, but feeding them in the machine is about as hard as getting them on the web to begin with.
“Admit” is a strong word, I’d go for “desperately attempt to deny”.
Bullshit. All you need is to scrape together a measley $7 trillion dollars and throw it at Sam Altman.
This was really obvious a couple orders of magnitude ago, but I guess at least they stopped lying about infinite scale being an option?
I am a firm realist. I’d like to point out two things.
There are two sides: the anti-corpo leftists of Lemmy, and the hyper “where do we sign” neo liberals of reddit.
Lemmy Leftists are sure Google will literally just evaporate tomorrow, and the neo liberals are sure that the singularity has already happened and will be revealed for Christmas.
The truth is probably somewhere in the middle. Google literally cannot evaporate, and they are also probably struggling to improve their models. They will probably find ways to slowly improve them over time, at a reasonable rate.
what a strange post
I am a firm realist. There are two sides: the anti-corpo leftists of Blade II, and the hyper “where do we sign” neo liberals of Battlefield Earth.
Blade II Leftists are sure nighttime is literally just yellow color grading except when it’s blue or they forget to do it at all, and the neo liberals are sure that you tilt the camera and the more you tilt the camera the better the movie is.
The truth is probably somewhere in the middle. John Travolta literally cannot evaporate, and he is also probably struggling to improve his filmmaking. He will probably find ways to do both fucked up color grading and what he thinks are Dutch angles, but in a more subtle way.
And then Del Toro will probably send him a box of shit or live bees for Christmas.

There are two sides: the anti-corpo leftists of Del Taco, and the hyper “where do we sign” neo liberals of Taco Bell.
Del Taco Leftists are sure Taco Bell will literally just evaporate tomorrow, and the neo liberals are sure that the secret menu has already happened and will be revealed for Taco Tuesday.
The truth is probably somewhere in the middle. Taco Bell literally cannot evaporate, and they are also probably struggling to design a burrito that doesn’t fucking suck. They will probably find ways to distract you with churro bites instead, as a reasonable fast food chain would.
I can’t stop, it’s like eating potato chips, and as a firm realist. I’d like to point out two things.
There are two sides: the anti-corpo leftists who eat Pringles, and the hyper “where do we sign” neo liberals who prefer doritos.
I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here – that the average of two extremes is the most likely outcome? The opposing sides are both clearly ungrounded in reality, so it’s like you’ve set up not one but two strawmen arguments facing each other from miles away and using that as an illustration for an unspecific conjecture of averages between them.
