I have to agree with you that it's terrifying. I have a young son (under a year), and likely by the time I need to handle this myself, the challenges I will face will be very different. That said, there's some good news buried in

That is all true. However, the next step seems to be simple: build a second AI which has the ability to understand facts, but doesn't need all the fancy language generation capabilities. The second AI only needs to confirm correct, pro

Well, I half agree here. Assuming someone's physical appearance is such that they have a large belly. Assuming that they are pregnant (if true) is likely to make someone feel good, whereas assuming that they are fat (whether it's

Using archaic latin terms doesn't really strengthen your argument for linguistic evolution. However, for certain using plurals for individuals of unknown gender is hardly rare, there are hundreds of examples in literature a quick Googl

I suspect OP is trying to fight a subconscious bias that the person in question is male, which is why there is inconsistency. Many of us may also have made a similar assumption–I know I did, and I have certainly made edits to comments in th

That’s an interesting read, thank you. But my question is a bit more fundamental than that. Ultimately, my point is that although the argument is that an LLM doesn’t “know” anything, I am not sure that there is something categorically dif

I’m not sure you “don’t get to complain”, but essentially you’re reiterating my point, that I believe General Clark is wrong on this point (obviously with the caveat that I’m a guy with a keyboard and a monitor, but never seen a battlefield

Winning wars with air power alone is a very dangerous thing to do. It puts success entirely in the hands of the best funded. You can simply simulate the war and arrive at the outcome. So as a member of the “losing” side, how do you respond?

Why do you believe that a system should not need to consume millions of documents in order to be able to make predictions? For your example, the concepts of driving, night, vision, all need to be clearly understood, as well as how they rela

While I agree with your point, how would you test that? How could you determine whether an LLM “knows” what a cat is. And what is “knowing”? If I know that a Mæw tends to nạ̀ng bn a S̄eụ̄̀x, isn’t that the first thing I’ve learned? And coul

Private Eye don’t do a digital version unfortunately. I also have a subscription, but living in the EU, the customs charges often come to more than the price of the magazine (when they are imposed, which seems to be more or less at random).

In short, as long as our perception is based on biological and imperfect systems, these slight differences will exist. It's only weird if you overthink it though. If I say 'can everybody see in the dark equally well?', or &#x

I'm not sure that's accurate. The article suggests they used three routers, and mention 'interference'. I think you'd perhaps need to be more than a 'bystander' to be able to set up a triangle of WiFi rout
