I’m so sorry

Looks great, I’ll give it a bash

What you’re alluding to is the Turing test and it hasn’t been proven that any LLM would pass it. At this moment, there are people who have failed the inverse Turing test, being able to acerrtain whether what they’re speaking to is a machine or human. The latter can be done and has been done by things less complex than LLMs and isn’t proof of an LLMs capabilities over more rudimentary chatbots.

You’re also suggesting that it minimises the complexity of its outputs. My determination is that what we’re getting is the limit of what it can achieve. You’d have to prove that any allusion to higher intelligence can’t be attributed to coercion by the user or it’s just hallucinating based on imitating artificial intelligence from media.

There are elements of the model that are very fascinating like how it organises language into these contextual buckets but this is still a predictive model. Understanding that certain words appear near each other in certain contexts is hardly intelligence, it’s a sophisticated machine learning algorithm.

I mainly disagree with the final statement on the basis that the LLMs are more advanced predictive text algorithms. The way they’ve been set up with a chatbox where you’re interacting directly with something that attempts human-like responses, gives off the misconception that the thing you’re talking to is more intelligent than it actually is. It gives off a strong appearance of intelligence but at the end of the day, it predicts the next word in a sentence based on what was said previously but it doesn’t do that good job of comprehending what exactly it’s telling you. It’s very confident when it gives responses which also means when it’s wrong, it’s very confidently delivering the incorrect response.

Tbf it’s a compounding issue. It breaks Linux support because Vanguard demands access Linux will never give it which is kernel level.

And why I stopped playing

I always mix up roguelike and roguelite so thank you for explaining.

I don’t know how they plan to manage the Hideout if they want to have this open world.

It amazes me that people don’t notice this is the exact same formula for roguelikes.

One of the simplest ways to safeguard against breakage is to have your /home on a separate partition. I realised I wouldn’t need to backup and reformat it from the beginning, I just need to wipe the root drive and reinstall again.

It’s made even easier by writing an installation script. Simply put, you can pipe a list of packages into packstrap and use a little convenience package for pulling a partition scheme out of a file.

I like to tinker and I’m aware that things will break so I have these tools that let me rebuild the system again in as short a time as possible.

What’s the full title?

Wayland isn’t trying to be X12 and since X11 has been around, there haven’t been plans for there to be an X12 either. You want to discourage people from using Wayland but don’t encourage people to contribute to X11. You’re so hellbent on taking Wayland down, rather than further convincing people that X11 is superior and it’s easier to improve.

The comment I replied to suggested the opposite, that whatever decisions Apple makes, Android follows behind which isn’t the case in reality.

I understand your point though. It’s weird that people who use iPhones have this mentality that iPhones are at the forefront of innovation. I know some people who are aware that Apple is behind but the phone does what they require of it so they have no need to ask more.

I don’t think that’s true. Android has had more features than Apple for over a decade. People forget that iPhones didn’t used to have a proper file manager and the only way to put songs on them was through iTunes. iOS has been trailing behind Android in that respect while maintaining their walled garden.

Yeah I suppose that’s what’s happening with cops where they have to keep lowering standards otherwise they wouldn’t have so many people becoming cops rather than raising the quality of education to make them better. Instead they just make it easier for shitty people to become cops.

They may not qualify in that moment so it’s necessary to educate them until they can qualify. If you don’t know how to drive, go back to taking driving lessons until you can pass the test.

Netflix is full of reptiles who don’t care to offer a better service. All they want is enough market share to strongarm consumers into giving them more money.

I’m not sure what original comment you mean.

The reason for my comment was that the comment I replied to wasn’t addressing what the comment you were replying to, brought up. They bring up issues with using Google now has worsened because of LLMs and your reply said “well it’s useful for me in software development”. Like I said, that’s good for you but doesn’t address actual issues.

That’s good for you, however, content generation from these models has still polluted the internet and using Google’s Image search is impossible.

I felt this with one of the laptops I put KDE Neon on. It had all manner of issues that never got a resolution.
