yeah, i figure most westerners didn’t learn about what we did to both China and Japan from 1800 - 1930 (approximately). i learned it in elementary school, but i think “leadership” seriously dumbed things down since 1982.
“Stable genius” would be more apt because the exponential benchmark growth period appears to be over and the term has an ironic meaning from Trump’s own usage that very much applies to LLMs.
It’s still Gulf of Mexico, it’s still Lake Ontario, it’s still Department of Defense, and it’s still slop.
The opinion of anyone impressed by the function or output of a LLM enough to believe it is in any way adjacent to intelligence should be summarily dismissed, and ridiculed should they persist.
I’m impressed by llms all the time.
I’m impressed they manage to not shit themselves even more then they already do!
Lol
It’s very much factual that LLMs are intelligent, what are you even talking about?
Maybe you’re confusing intelligence with consciousness?
I’ve been trying to discuss this on Lemmy for a while now. Don’t bother. People here are convinced that LLMs can’t be intelligent because they’ve once seen them make a stupid mistake. Ergo AI as a whole must be just a stupid scam.
Sad that it"s almost impossible to have a serious discussion about LLMs on Lemmy but this entire network is full of kids that just parrot whatever latest meme narrative is. It’s a legitimately useful discussion but a completely poisoned one on this corner of the internet.
I find it fascinating though that this narrative that AI is just stupid shit is so, so prevalent on Lemmy. I mean people here seem to be quite tech-savvy on average. Surely they must understand what an incredible development AI has gone through in the last 10 years? They must be smart enough to understand that LLMs are a tool that, if used right, are extremely powerful. See all the potential in medicine, chemistry, etc… But all I read is “LLM stupid parrot amirite LOL”… it’s almost infuriating. I mean, I totally get the whole economic point - big tech is screwing us over, I absolutely agree with that. But that is a completely different conversation that people here make impossible to have because they just focus on a ridiculously wrong aspect of AI which is that it is not the perfect AGI they read about in their comic books.
Intelligence requires possession and/or demonstration of comprehension, something LLMs are intrinsically incapable of.
If you insist on classifying LLMs as ‘AI’, I’ll concede they are proficient Algorithmic Iterators.
I mean, they are AI though it’s a very misleading label, AIs are called like that because to someone it seems that they mimic human inteligence; they are just copycat machines, sadly it’s too late to change their name unless a government starts to make campaigns to aid that
Yet LLMs demonstrate all of that
LLMs demonstrate knowledge not intelligence.
LLMs are basically giant knowledge databases with no intelligence. They know a lot of things but they don’t understand stand any of it.
Because fundamentally they can’t understand things. They can only approximate understanding.
It’s no different then if I asked someone to prove 2+2=4. They could tell me that yes that’s correct, because they know it. But they couldn’t explain it properly. Let alone explain why it also isn’t always true.
Hallucinations are fundamentally the disconnect from knowledge and understanding. Everything a LLM says from its point of view is “true” it’s only stating factual knowledge so far that it has it in its data set.
But with out understanding, it can’t tell when that knowledge wanders from a 99% likelihood to be accurate to 60% or 20%. Because it doesn’t actually understand what it’s saying.
It can only state subjective not objective truth. And subjective truth is no better than a fiction with out understanding.
This is why they need a human minder to keep track of the output to correct it back to optimum output when it starts to wander.
This binary distinction you’re making doesn’t exist in any serious scientific literature. I literally have a degree in information technology and have been following this subject for over 30 years now - there’s no real distinction between “knowledge” and intelligence. In fact, compression itself is literally intelligence.
You’re proving my point, jog on.
Lemmy luddites: 🙈🙉
I have tried it for ESPhome and it gives you something that sounds right. When you go to save ESPhome says this is not a valid option so then you say that to the AI and it goes yes that is correct this is how you do that option. Like WTF so SMRT.
“But I one shotted this barely functioning game in Astra!” 🤣🤣🤣
File this under dumb shit the dumbest motherfucker on the planet and the president of the united states says…
One could argue there are 77 million dumber motherfuckers
And counting…
file cabinet’s full, boss
Oh man that’s fucking hot I’d file so much shit in that.
Hahahaha so true, may need to build one of them fancy new data centers I keep hearing about 😉
we’re calling them “america centers” now actshually
This just in…all data centers to be renamed to “super america centers” parking is not free and will require you to download an app and show proof that you have completed your mandatory communism training.
Redundant much?
It is isn’t, but sometimes emphasis matters 😂
Kind of impressive in this day and age to make me think “this is the stupidest thing I have heard in a long while”
There are so many many many things, maybe its a good thing the press pool isn’t covering every little idiotic phrase he lets out in the short term.
not let’s see how eager the tech bros will be to comply versus renaming geographic features
Super is fine for the average Joe, I’m personally holding out for the Pro and Ultra model renames next year.
New Super Intelligence & Knuckles feat. Dante from the Devil May Cry Series New Funky Mode Happy Home Designer Ultimate Nintendo Switch 2 Edition Plus Ultra XL Pro Max The New Challengers Fun At Home Bigger, Longer, and Uncut Unrated DX Director’s Cut 2 Battle.
Is that better than Super Ultra Intelligence II’ X Turbo Hyper Fighting Plus Extra Special Champion Edition Revival: The World Warrior New Challengers Tournament Battle Grand Master Challenge?
…Tokyo Drift
*Pro & Pro Max… Ftfy
Limited Edition or Extreme…
Pro Max for mobile intelligence; Ultra for desktop intelligence.
Pro is for mobile. Pro Max for tablet.
When you put trump next to a pigeon the pigeon has super intellegence
Why not Super Duper?
Officially? What does that mean? That means just in government controlled documents right?
I would never have guessed that we"d be able to make Idiocracy look like a documentary in my lifetime. What a spectacular decline.
I would have never guessed we could make Idiocracy look like it was a smart film about smart people.
smort
Why not: Super Hyper Intelligent Technology -> S.H.I.T.?
Or: Super Technology Utilizing People’s Desires -> S.T.U.P.I.D.??
Oh-oh! Maybe: Fast Utility Computer Kernel - Official Factory Format F.U.C.K.-O.F.F!
Or: Super Technology Utilizing People’s ^ Desires -> S.T.U.P.I.D.??
^Idiotic
Oh that one: Intelligence Designed In Omnipresent Tactical Interface Code I.D.I.O.T.I.C
Getting rid of the word Artificial huh. May make it easier to make people accept what’s coming I guess.
Super intelligence sounds positive doesnt it. Dystopia rebranded for the schmucks.
Hey, you don’t want Super Intelligence? Of course you do!
Not the Onion
My first thought was wondering why The Onion chose Super Intelligence instead of the more believable American Intelligence, which keeps the AI abbreviation. I really just thought this was going to be some worse Onion knockoff website.
Too Stupid to be The Onion
