Unfortunately, the Gen AI hypesters are doing a lot to make it harder for people to attain literacy in this subdomain. People who are otherwise fairly digitally literate believe fantastical things about LLMs and it’s because they’re being f

“ This is the only time I've come across a task a child could do that LLM failed at.” Consider yourself lucky. It’s the people who haven’t run into something like this that will end up placing too much trust in these tools.

It is not exactly like that. Junior coworkers mess up in fairly predictable ways.

“as long as they are well substantiated” Why does almost everyone act as if this is a valid thing to do? We all know that these models cannot verify that something is well substantiated. The mass delusion is crazy making.

Good point. Also, the fact that I’m adamant that one cannot fly a helicopter to the moon doesn’t mean that I think helicopters are useless. That said, if I’m inundated everyday with people insisting that one CAN fly a helicopter to the moon

Well, different humans have different capabilities and we have to choose which one we want to talk to depending on what we are trying to accomplish. Therefore these tools are as good as or better than humans in every possible way. Stop bein

And what’s the point you’re trying to make? If Russia was trying to drop bombs on DC and the US was trying to drop bombs on Moscow, would you think it strange for the US to try to prevent the bombs from being dropped on DC?

I am shocked to learn that Gen AI does not produce reliably accurate information! Shocked, I say!

Remember. How. It works. Please, please remember how it works. It is generating an answer anew, every single time. It is amazing how often it produces a correct answer, but not at all surprising that it produces inconsistent and sometimes i

1. I believe you that it works well 2. Plausible != Correct - ie, would someone notice if they were reading a slightly different but still logical story?

“Almost perfectly” It is freaking amazing that this works almost perfectly. Seriously, it’s mind blowing. The problem is, when you keep in mind how the technology works, you realize that the “almost” can never be removed. That’s fine for so

This is exactly it! I’m not even that smart and I know that these LLM can never get to the point of being 100% accurate, it’s inherent to how they work. So if I know that, certainly all of the experts working on these systems know that. So

“A cryptographic hash should uniquely identify a file.” This is not true. It’s not possible to guarantee this. One can be certain that two files DON’T match if they have different hashes, but one cannot be certain that two files DO match ba
