I would say what he means is the web. LLMs can be used as another interface to the internet. Additionally the web gets polluted by slop.

Oh wow thanks, you might have saved me a lot of time and anger.

Cool, nice name also!

> It moves, show "emotions", comments when someone enter the room, uses the camera to see who entered the room and comment on that, make comments when my 3D printer finishes, things like that.

So basically you're using it as an AI mother in law, nice.

What would be so bad about relying on ROS in any way?

Sounds interesting, could you elaborate on what you do with?

Godverdomme

Very cool idea and my evolution to a scorpio was fun and educational.

I actively do it in a way, where i steer and understand the important bits. Because otherwise the cognitive and technical debt would annoy me to a point, where i would want to do software at all.

Took me a few minutes to realise it's not a domain name search engine.

> could be understood as slightly hyperbolic

Of course, you're right. I didn't intend to criticise him.

I just think that it's not a good idea to transfer this megatrend to healthcare.

Yes, those systems can be highly accurate, but as we all have experienced, this is not a stable or consistent property. A very good model can give you an ingenious answer one minute and an utterly dumb one the next. My guess is that it's simply a consequence of the extremely high complexity of the 'plant' (natural language, language interfacing with the real world), leading to some highly non linear behaviour.

So you want him to make a piece of software that models a probability distribution rock solid.

Yeah, interestingly it feels equally bland as the 90s pendants.

I thought exactly the same at first. But then i wondered if that still holds true with today's advanced thinking, RLHF involved, frontier models. I guess to a certain extend it did indeed behave better, as a reaction to his self description into account.

EDIT: I mean, those systems accumulated so much complexity around the attention based next token predictor.

So Opus introduced a container with overflow:scroll in the middle of the page, while Qwen didn't? That's interesting in terms of "smartness".

Could someone explain to me, why rare books are so precious for them?

Say i feed the largest LLM a book of an alien civilisation, that it definitely hasn't seen before. Then this tiny piece of text muds the vast ocean (latent space) of the model minimally. It will not be able to cite from that book reliably after that fine tuning. Especially for rare books, because them being rare implies, that there aren't 1000s of other books, that encode the same information.

It's general language modelling capabilities might get an iota better, of course. But for putting factual information into it, wouldn't RAG be a much more solid approach?

Watch Don't look up, if you haven't yet, it's brilliant.

Everybody knows that. You contact NASA. Then a black helicopter will pick you up, bring you to an airbase and fly you straight to the white house, where you will be introduced to the actual truth, while a team of very excited scientists with biohazard suits praise and examine the artefact. If you're still sceptical, they will take you to a large hidden hangar in the middle of the desert and show you around.

Should be sarcasm, sorry.

This is so true. It has so much potential to help with humanity's actual problems. But no, lets use it to manipulate people even more.

Very handy.

The video is also awesome!

I had to lol at the doom scene.

> investigating mathematics is fun whether it is new to the world or not.

Yes exactly. Enjoying the beauty of nature is (thankfully) completely decoupled from the job/money/society side of things.

I'm wondering if Pianoteq [0] works similarly.

Awesome LaTeX-inspired webdesign btw.!

Why is that harder? Because require solving PDEs, aren't they?

Absolutely fantastic!

The video URL doesn't seem to be correct, through. ;)

Of course, but there is a big asymmetry: For some systems there are a lot more people interested in hacking them, compared to those interested in protecting them.

But i guess it's also a matter of money, because a company could potentially balance that by throwing x times more agents etc. at it.

Cool idea!

Maybe you could somehow integrate it with Calibre [0].

I'm genuinely curious:

Is that maybe spilled milk?

Maybe today's US frontier models provide enough information content, so that the momentum suffices to use them as a base for every coming generation of distilled and later fine-tuned models?

Exactly. For solving problems every help is a blessing. It's just clashing with our legacy society system. This system forces us to have jobs. But the real problems humanity is facing, like planetary boundaries or a decent base standard of living for all humans, are completely unimpressed by that human made model.
