I rolled a one in D&D, it is not what I wanted, so it is a bug. Remove it from all my dice.
- SirMaster 2y agoWhat? You are telling me that when you roll a 6 sided dice you are not expecting any of the 1-6 as a result? If a 6-sided dice produced a 7 that would be a bug. When you rolled a dice, I would argue that you knew you wanted a random number from 1-6, not that you wanted a specific number or not a specific number. If you wanted that you wouldn't have used a dice. When I ask an LLM to write code for me and it references a completely made up library that doesn't exist and has never existed, is this really analogous to your dice example?
- drewbeck 2y agoIMO it is because you just asked a bunch of dice to write code for you.
- stonemetal12 2y ago>You are telling me that when you roll a 6 sided dice you are not expecting any of the 1-6 as a result? The statement I replied to wasn't any non-expected result is a bug, it was non-desired output is a bug (hence the joke about not desiring an expected output). LLMs producing "funny" (hallucination) outputs are expected but only sometimes not desired, therefore not a bug in my opinion. How do you use an LLM in story telling if it isn't allowed to produce fictious outputs?
