The same way a light fixture copes with being switched off.
- pixl97 8mo agoOh, these binary one layer neural networks are so useful. Glad for your insight on the matter.
- quickthrowman 8mo agoBy comparing an LLM’s inner mental state to a light fixture, I am saying in an absurd way that I don’t think LLMs are sentient, and nothing more than that. I am not saying an LLM and a light switch are equivalent in functionality, a single-pole switch only has two states. I don’t really understand your response to my post, my interpretation is that you think LLMs have an inner mental state and think I’m wrong? I may be wrong about this interpretation.
- pixl97 8mo agohttps://arxiv.org/abs/2304.13734 https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.13734 LLMs have an inner/internal state. Deep neural networks are weird and there is a lot going on in them that makes them very different from the state machines we're used to in binary programs.
