With AI, everyone will be average in no time! Internet started it, hopefully LLMs will finish it.

So your problem with the definition is that "I invented it"? Do you have any rational objection to the definition? If you don't have, then I am afraid that you don't have a point.

If he is an idiot, the "bullshit" that he says would be inconsistent. The problem with Trump is perception. That what Trump says can appear to be inconsistent if you are looking for it. Or if you want to project that impression.

Yea, it is like looking at the insides of a mechanical clock vs looking into an electronic one. The former is mesmerizing, intriguing, inviting and inspiring. The later? you can't wait to put the lid back on...

So basically that is what I was saying. Imagine an LLM that can also OCR. Would it be possible to make it OCR a totally new letter by only showing a single picture of it and including the fact in the context? I think it would not be possibl

LLM does not "reason". This should be clear by the fact that it can solve complex math problems without understanding how to count.

I think we can talk about intelligence without introducing consciousness. So there are two questions 1. Is LLMs really showing intelligent behavior. 2. Is that real intelligence. I think even to the first question, the answer is no. Because
