Maybe I lost this battle, but also in science the terminology evolves. If you replace AI hallucination with AI confabulation even your grandmaother would get it right. I also don't agree that both terms are equally inaccurate.

Obviously, hallucination is by definition a perception, so it incorrectly anthropomorphizes AI models. On the other hand, the term confabulation involves filling in gaps with fabrication, exactly what LLMs do (aka bullshitting).

Fully agreed, this Gil Kopatz could as well write articles in Der Stürmer. The same rhetoric was used by the Nazis. For instance, they compared Jews to rats: Caption: “When the vermin are dead, the German oak will flourish once more.” (Dece

Thank you, this is what I wanted to know: "‘If you feed Gazans, they eventually eat you,’ the Israeli stand-up comedian Gil Kopatz posted. ‘It’s not genocide, it’s pesticide.’ According to a survey commissioned by Penn State, more than

One photo among many others, didn't say it was one child only! It also could be that Israel propagandists send them to journalists to discredit any other valid evidence of starvation, which is more than abundant

Exposed by whom? Israeli propadandists? Even if one of the photos among many represents a child with some other underlying condition apart from malnutrition, does this mean that starvation in Gaza does not exist? People getting shot dead tr

You should also reconsider what you consumes. Must be some nasty stuff if you claim that Gaza children starvation is a media conspiracy fueled by BBC and Unicef.

I think I got so upset by people needlessly dying in Gaza that maybe I went too far in this discussion. Obviously, the war and genocide don't necessarily exclude each other.

Agreed, I was blown away by some of his achievements, like AlphaGo. Still I'm not very much convinced that AGI is around the corner yet, even if he appears to claim otherwise.

Inflation rose everywhere in Europe due to the economic shock caused by the pandemic and the war in Ukraine. In 2022 inflation rate in Poland was 14% compared to 8% in Spain for example. 2024 figure (for Poland) was down to 4%.

Still it's the sales pitch that allowed it. This is why I'm sceptical about his AGI views. Is this his genuine opinion or just the hype he's interested in sustaining as an AI startup owner?

This guy has a vested interest in talking nonsense about AGI to attract investors' money and government subsidies worth billions. Privately, he doesn't think it's likely in next 25 years.
