Isn’t it true that the only thing that LLM’s do is “hallucinate”? The only way to know if it did “hallucinate” is to already know the correct answer. If you can make a system that knows when an answer is right or not, you no longer need the

I think we should less worried about people believing deep-fakes are real and more worried that politicians (and others) will be able to claim things which they actually said are deep fakes.

I think the important part of the technique is talking about what you see, not the actual act of seeing things. He talks about creating brain pathways between the visual and linguistic parts of your brain. It’s those new pathways that are t

Sure, but "were they in the office" is /much/ easier to measure at scale. And I'm sure you'd throw a pretty big fit if your pay was docked because the company didn't think you did a good enough job, even t
