the tech is in its infancy. dont discount what its capable of based on its current iteration. science is a progression
Yeah, about that..
Different AI models are developing in different ways. Some are learning from legit, curated sources from reputable scholars and professors and such.
But other AI models are learning from less than reputable sites, such as Reddit...
Google is learning from Reddit. This tech journey is gonna be fun...
Oh, believe me, I don't. At all. I've been working in the software engineering sector since the mid 90's; I'm quite aware of the rapid pace of change in this sector. I was briefly considering a focus on AI when getting my degree, back in the early 90's.
But this specifically mentions LLMs, and the fundamental way LLMs function is not going to lead to self-aware AI, or any sort of system that is going to be able to self-evaluate for accuracy or "truthiness." It's going to take an advance in neural net science; maybe in combination with LLM - but LLMs by themselves will only ever be dumb machines that generate predictive text based on - I don't know, Bayesian probabilities, or whatever.
ha, i never meant full-on GAI, singularity. i just meant a visual model good enough to classify what it sees in a very specific context. i never mentioned or meant to refer to 'ai'
