It's not a person, it's a machine. And it's one that will still produce hallucinations that embarrassingly prove that it has no notion of intelligence, and do so confidently. That it does so less than it's sibling is ent

It's still fundamentally the same, hallucinates just the same, and anthropomorphizes itself as a confident, knowledgeable, intelligent being just the same. A newer, better, faster, more capable car still isn't an airplane, even i

Then it's a markov-like with state. Or as I've taken to calling them lately Markov+state. (I couldn't resist, sorry.) A truck towing a trailer isn't just a car because it pivots in the middle and has more wheels. It&#x27

LMM = Large Markov Model. I use that term because models like GPT-4 and friends are for all intents and purposes Markov chains with more data, more compute, some lossy compression, and a bit of nearest neighbor search. Next-word-engines. &g

When your funds get low just open your hot and cold wallet apps and type in how much to transfer, wasabi takes care of the rest. It's easier than merely logging into my bank. Or paypal (which unintentionally locked me out for over a ye
