LLMs can't be sued or commit crimes as they aren't legal people In this case its likely google that would be responsible for putting up the fake information. There's been some court cases around this already

I've been programming in OpenCL for 10+ years. This article is clearly AI generated, and its also completely wrong OpenCL did not fragment into a mess of vendor specific extensions. I don't know where that even comes from, the e

Honestly? Yes. This is why its such a problem that most of the training data was not used with permission, and without the correct copyright status or license associated with it There's a lot of arguments about humans doing the same th

Yes, and realistically any code that LLMs produce is a derivative work of its training data. There's going to be a huge disaster licensing wise I have absolutely no idea how LLMs got through anyone's legal departments, I guess the

Yes, and LLMs have been shown to store and be able to output their training data, so this is at best very sketchy

Git is part of the LLM's training set though, so simply asking it to recreate git in another language is pretty equivalent. Like, you can almost certainly get these LLMs to output gits full source code with some prompting, so there

For me the two reasons I can't live without are 1. Firefox's ctrl-f search doesn't highlight all instances of a found item on the right hand side. It sounds petty, but its a gigantic timesaver for looking through research doc

Usage isn't really a good indicator of quality currently in the AI space, the issue is that there's inherently no way that an AI physics sim can be as good as a real physics simulation, which makes it a very low value prospect

I've consistently tried to apply LLMs to physics problems and they're utterly useless. They'll just confidently lie, or blatantly plagiarise source materials The issue is once you hit niche physics simulations there simply is
