Stochastic parrots do not know the difference.
- onion2k 10mo agoThey don't know anything at all about outcomes. Systems rarely do, whether it's AI or not. Outcomes are 'output * impact', where the impact is what we measure when we see changes driven by the output of the system. In a good process the impact feeds into the system to produce a better output on the next iteration.
