- dartos 3y agoI mean… neither did any AI.
- sensanaty 3y agoWasn't ChatGPT trained on the entirety of Wikipedia? And probably millions of pieces of scientific literature, and arts, and movies and games and and and... Perhaps the hyperbole of the entire corpus of human knowledge isn't quite technically right, but it's close enough.
- dartos 3y agoYou’re also assuming these statical models learn in the same way humans do, which is very likely not true. Tho tbh I’m not really sure what OPs point was i don’t think the amount of training data is relevant here.
- gaganyaan 3y agoTimmy did however spend years and years training on his own data ingested from incredibly high quality sensors. Not sure what your point is
- firtoz 3y agoHe does ingest a lot of frames of input consisting of mostly that.
- throwuwu 3y agoWhat’s the FPS of human eyesight? How long did Timmy spend looking at Mario, more generally other cartoons and even more generally human forms? Do the math and you’ll find he’s got a pretty big training set as well, maybe not quite the same size but nothing to sneeze at.
