Is there a difference between memorization + stochastic parroting if it is indistinguishable from human understanding?
If a hunk of metal looks like a car, sounds like a car, and drives like a car is it a car?
- riku_iki 3y agoit is indistinguishable on some trivial results, but not scalable for next level of complexity.
- LabMechanic 3y agoWho knows, but until it can fool me by randomness (like Nassim Taleb suggests), i.e., deriving something given a set of axioms and definitions (from a non-widespread domain), then I might join your "ignorance is bliss" argument. Also, hype is good for the stock market, so keep hyping it up? At the end, Elon Musk success seems to stem from hype and sensationalism. CNN (i.e., "breaking news" everywhere) has financial success due to sensationalism and hype, so hype is good, I guess?
