I’m pretty sure Google’s AI is fed by the same spider that goes out and finds every new or changed web page (or a variant of that).
As soon as someone writes an article about how AI gets something wrong and provides a solution, that solution is now in the AI’s training data.
OTOH, that means it’s probably also ingesting a lot of AI generated slop, which causes its own set of problems.
It’s not literally guessing, because guessing implies it understands there’s a question and is trying to answer that question. It’s not even doing that. It’s just generating words that you could expect to find nearby.
3 in 10 people get this wrong‽‽
Maybe they’re picturing filling up a bucket and bringing it back to the car? Or dropping off keys to the car at the car wash?
It’s also the case that people are mostly consistent.
Take a question like “how long would it take to drive from here to [nearby city]”. You’d expect that someone’s answer to that question would be pretty consistent day-to-day. If you asked someone else, you might get a different answer, but you’d also expect that answer to be pretty consistent. If you asked someone that same question a week later and got a very different answer, you’d strongly suspect that they were making the answer up on the spot but pretending to know so they didn’t look stupid or something.
Part of what bothers me about LLMs is that they give that same sense of bullshitting answers while trying to cover that they don’t know. You know that if you ask the question again, or phrase it slightly differently, you might get a completely different answer.
In the absence of content destroyers, I’m happy to settle for content selectors, like OP.
There’s a big difference between drivers who only drive in rural areas and drivers who drive in crowded rush hour traffic in big cities. And, different big cities have their own challenges. As a visitor, trying to navigate LA’s freeway hell was awful, and the drivers who were used to it were not at all accommodating. But, I think LA drivers would find driving in Boston and its Masshole drivers to be hell, because it’s all about squeezing down narrow streets that come from a time before automobiles.
I’m guessing wherever you live doesn’t have lots of snow and frozen ground.
I dunno, not being able to see the humanity of other people is worrying.
You’re letting us know a lot about you here.
Starbuck wouldn’t try to sell swamp thing!
It’s very telling that you think emotion has anything to do with it.
If your army can easily crush the enemy and they refuse to give you the resources you want, it’s not an emotional decision to go to war to get it. It might be an immoral one, but so is demanding the resources in the first place.
I’m a huge fan of immutable distros, but I’m not sure they’re mass transit.
Maybe:
It gets you where you want to go, but you don’t have to handle the toil of dealing with traffic.
Because part of conservatism is the idea that hierarchies based on who your parents are, and the fact that you’re male, etc. are proper and right.
They want to submit to the people who are correctly above them in the hierarchy, and want the people who are supposed to be below them in the hierarchy to submit to them.
It’s really amazing to me that we’re about to hit the 250th anniversary of the founding of the USA, and this is basically advocating going back to how votes worked worked way back when the country was founded.
Yeah. Wars weren’t fought because a king had a temper tantrum. Wars were mostly fought to control land.
This is mistaking cause and effect. Fighting over land results in a lot of strong emotions. Emotions aren’t the cause of fighting over land.
Interesting game, but they seemed to intentionally make it as anti-fun as possible. Assembling the car was cool. But, everything you had to do to get the car parts, keep yourself alive, etc. was pretty tedious.
This seems really weird. Smoke detectors are important, but the odds of a fire any given night are incredibly low. To me, replacing a detector would be a chore I’d get to within a week, and I definitely wouldn’t lose sleep over it.
