That is really hard to follow. But I think it boils down to a form of. Claim: There can never be an X Response: This here Y is an X Claim: No it isn't! I was asking for examples of Y so we could judge for ourselves.

Can you give some specific instances of impossible things being claimed? When I search for such things I tend to only find claims that claims were made.

I have often been criticised as way too optimistic for thinking some new thing might become commonplace. The topics change but the arguments seem to be the same. It's limited, if it were any good, then the prevailing industry would

How many people have done things like this and then disclosed the fact? It would be fascinating to collect as many instances as you can to develop a data set. Could you train a system to find more? How many could it find, and in what ar

There has been quite a lot of work in this area. Analysis of activations around hallucinations seems to show that there is some representation of not knowing. There are things like https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.22071v2

It should be trained to answer when it knows the answer, and to state that it does not know the answer when it does not. They might already have a very good understanding of not knowing internally, but are just not trained to express that

There is a fundamental assumption made about the ability of AI here that I believe is wrong. It assumes that the outputs are lacking because of a limit of ability. I think there is a strong case to make that many of their limitations come f

I can see how that happens when people come at things from a conceptual digital side first. It probably doesn't help when you have a circuit diagram that while topologically correct doesn't show the relative positioning between co

Yes, I was thinking of it more like bank switching. Although, going back to the start of the thread where the suggestion was adding more RAM to future chips perhaps the request could be for support for multiple channels in the future. It;s

It's really hard to tell sarcastic irony from legitimately held opinion these days. Boring is, and has always been, the mind of the beholder.

I have always wondered kind of bandwidth you could make by multiple channels of PSRAM driven by PIO/DMA. Individually they're not so speedy(although the APS6408L-OCH-BA seems pretty crazy) , but how many can you run simultaneousl

It can already do some part of that. Eventually it will be able to all of it. If it does it on it's own, it might be a good idea, but it won't be your good idea. This is not an issue of ownership or attribution, but one of conte

I could never do this. I would forget that I am staring at a wall within 30 seconds. The suggestion of going for a walk at least means when you get absorbed by something in your mind, you are still out on a walk, You can't just turn a

Do you not think it might be counterproductive considering every new activity in terms of emissions output? We need to reduce emissions, to do this we need systemic change. It seems unfair to place the burdon of reaching efficiency gains

Really? It makes me think of the hunting of the snark, because my brain makes it's own style of random wikipedia link wandering.

Like the post above says that there are multiple issues at play with AI. The same can be said about universal income. The pay levels are not comparable because you are also recompensed with time. You may choose to spend your time in a num

I don't drink things with Aspartame because it makes me feel queasy. I don't know of any mechanism that causes that effect. Occasionally I encounter something that I would not have expected to contain Aspartame that I notice the

How do you determine if they are mentally convincing themselves they are the good guy, when in fact it is you who is the good guy. From either perspective, if the roles were reversed, wouldn't it look the same? Both parties thinking

In that case it does not depict the scenario you suggested. This is not a data center issue at all, it is a construction issue, that it was a data center being constructed was incidental. I believe there are regulations that cover things li

That may be part of the issue. Perhaps LLMs are just causing people to reveal how much they consider a maintainer as providing a service for them. Maintainers don't work for you, they let you benefit from the service they perform. Tha

I think it's more likely that libraries will give way to specified interfaces. Good libraries that provide clean interfaces with a small surface area will be much less affected by thos compared to frameworks that like to be a part of

TLA overload strikes again. Reading this after a day of fighting microcontrollers made me interpret the headline quite differently. Ignoring DMA requests and contradictory documentation sounded entirely on point.
