China rolls out large language model based on Xi Jinping Thought
- maremmano 2y agoI would love to try this LLM
- cs702 2y agoApparently this is real. Surely, every other "dear leader" out there will want one of these. They'll say "my loving subjects can now have me ruling forever" or something similar. It's both unbelievable and entirely predictable.
- contingencies 2y agohttps://archive.is/g4uZH https://archive.is/g4uZH HN can call him virtual Xi, or "V-Xi" for short! I'm sure he can "add value" to startup ideas. More seriously, surely this is someone in the CCP's discordant art project masquerading as a serious party effort. In which case - what's the bet heads will roll when he wakes up to the fact he's been Pooh-beared again? I'd like to ask it: "When your whole country wants you dead, your only friends are dictators, your economy is tanking, the youth are unemployed, capital exodus is matched only by brain drain, macro-demographic impacts of bad policy are eviscerating the size of your workforce and the age of your population, and your remnant control rests upon cutting off heads, could it perhaps be time to retire?"

- rurp 2y ago> could it perhaps be time to retire? Yes, but it's not going to happen. One of the (many) problems with a dictatorship is the lack of rule of law and what that means for giving up power. There is no such thing as a safe retirement plan, Xi and his loyalists would be at the mercy of the next ruler. Leaders in such systems almost always surround themselves with loyalists and cling to power, especially as they age and their effectiveness diminishes.

- ilaksh 2y agoMy guess is that this could be used as a judge for censorship. So theoretically this could displace a lot of Chinese who have those jobs. And might be more strict. Although, I am sure much of it is already automated. This would probably be able to handle more subtle dissent though.
- alephnerd 2y agoIt's just someone trying to hit a KPI or do something cool for a promo internally. No reason to read too deeply into this.
- hooverd 2y agoLLMs with Chinese characteristics?
- yabatopia 2y agoWell, they already had the Xictionary, a "dictionary" of Xi-related words, thoughts and quotes. I guess a complete LLM based on the CCP cult leader is the next new quality productive force in this whole-process people's democracy. If that last sentence looks like insane word salad, you clearly haven’t read the Xictionary! I wonder what the LLM will say about the free and independent country Taiwan, the Tibet invasion, the 1989 Tiananmen Square Massacre or the current Uyghur genocide. Probably as speechless as the Xictionary?
- euroderf 2y agoDoubleplusgood! 100% uncrimethink.
- ralphc 2y agoThis actually sounds like a good counter-espionage tool. Feed all you can find about an adversary into a LLM and ask it what the adversary would do in present or hypothetical scenarios. Tweak from differences and you can peer inside their "thoughts".
- alephnerd 2y agoDepends on your corpora though. In most cases you aren't going to have a large enough corpora needed to get truly tangible results. That said, I would love to make something like this in a personal capacity sort of like the moving photos in Harry Potter.
- hn_version_0023 2y agoSounds like Westworld
- mensetmanusman 2y agoWhat does Xi think about dancing hot dogs?
- chuckadams 2y agoI’d like to hear what it has to say about Winnie the Pooh
