Apparently some places call a paper fortune-teller (below) a 'cootie catcher'. Still unclear as to how it relates. Closest I got was that it's some kind of LLM script to give users defined answers based on their questions. Maybe that mean OpenAI gave hardcoded responses, therefore lying about intelligent generation?
ty!
LLMs are much easier to understand than the people selling them want to pretend. If that's news to anybody, perhaps see if you can spot the similarities between 'paper fortune teller' logic and the models described here.
Worst part about AI is convincing a generation that we should protect "intellectual property". OpenAI might as well be an RIAA psyop
If you want instant liver failure, take a shot every time someone uses an incredibly oversimplified understanding of the human brain and LLMs to assert LLMs have human properties.
Also, shoutouts to !techtakes@awful.systems and !fuck_ai@lemmy.world
Don't go in those if you have any sort of desire to defend modern content generation/content thievery AI.
Also, yes LLM style AI has it's uses. Mainly to generate shit that we shouldn't need in the first place, or stuff that we should pay a person to do well. And the cost is stupid when compared to the minor benefit.
