1) Fair. I did some experiments with recommendation systems 15 years ago and we basically stopped using dimensions generated by the system, because nobody could make anything of them. The human-made dimensions were much easier to create use

I mean LLMs reduce the "vector space" that describes reality into a vector space with fewer dimensions (e.g. 300 in the article I was replying to.)

Awesome, thanks! If I understand this correctly, there are three major problems with LLMs right now. 1. LLMs reduce a very high-dimensional vector space into a very low-dimensional vector space. Since we don't know what the dimensions

Photorealism gives the impression of capturing the truth, but any reasonably skilled photographer knows this isn't the case. Text generated by LLMs has similar properties.

It came unwound when we allowed enterprises to destroy the wages of the lower end and stopped building to respond to the housing demand. That can be easily undone, if the powers to be allowed it.

Haha, mine too. It would probably make sense to start with a new new "house" or something. Might even make sense to have some quotas (at least 50% women etc.), so the whole things doesn't have to get to Chinese government siz

But people were also hating about media piracy, video games, and the internet in general. The dotcom bubble popped, but the general consensus didn't become negative.

Could it be a hole that was created by improvements in women's rights? My sister got three kids, but she got them after 30. My mom and my grandma got their first child with 20.

I have to admit, that using slow models is unbearable when I used fast one before. I don't know if the quality and speed are linearly related, though.

So, how should we as a society handle this? Ensure the models are open source, so everyone can use them, as everyones data is in there? Close those companies and force them to delete the models, as they used copyright material?
