No but it was definitely implied by the headline. A word prediction machine, no matter how useful, is never going to be an AGI. And don’t get me wrong, I find LLMs very useful for lots of things. But the model they are chasing is never going to be an AGI, no matter how much info you feed it.

I also wouldn’t predict against an LLM helping to create an AGI either. I have this analogy in my head…

I hammer is a useful tool. It can do many things. It can even put a screw into a piece of wood through a very brute force method. This does not make a hammer a screw driver. Could you use a hammer to help in construction of a machine to build a screw driver? Most definitely, likely even required.

Anybody suggesting they have an AGI built from the current process is a tech bro looking for funding.

Repeat after me. LLMs. Are. Not. Intelligent.

Cool. Charge Zuck with Attempted Murder.

Well more like Sous vide

Edit: I hate when I think I’m being clever only to keep reading and someone else was just as clever but quicker.

Yeah exactly.

Digital games are fine as long as I have to ability to trade and sell. That’s the only thing physical media gave me that I cared about.

I love Skyrim. I really do. But my problem with Skyrim is (and I totally realize this is my own doing), is I have purchased it so many many times… Xbox360 (x3)

Xbox One (x2)

Steam (x3)

Switch

PS4 (regular and VR)

PS5 (I think this might have been a special edition)

And I’m not even counting the DLCs

Now these all weren’t just for me or so I could have a copy at my girlfriends house so not sure that would count. But I’d be scared to count how much money I’ve thrown at Todd.

I have tried so hard to like Returnal. But the constant starting completely over EVERY SINGLE FUCKING TIME just gets so old.

I just freeze them when I get them. I’m just making smoothies so it doesn’t matter much.

Anyone that can learn from their mistakes and take in new information that was against their initial beliefs is worthy of praise.

So I guess it’s either hold your phone flat or the earth is flat, but not both. The orientation change when he changed.

I didn’t know I needed this gif until now.

Space really isn’t cold. Temperature is a measure of how fast particles (atoms, molecules) are moving.

In a perfect vacuum with no particles at all, you literally couldn’t define a temperature, because there’s nothing around to jiggle

Ummm….

This is just dumb

My main problem with this is I can’t sell or trade a digital game after I’m done with it. This needs to be felt delt with legally.

Yeah I totally missed that.

Well TIL … I subscribed to the first two but the last one didn’t work for some reason.

Not to my knowledge. But I assume this is nothing new and any reasonable person could come up with the same thing. I did google the ISS thing so that part may have come from there.

One think I miss from reddit… /r/datahoarder

These were my people. I probably have 100TB but it certainly isn’t in my home directory. I’m not sure if I should be immpressed or freightened.
