These suspensions send the appropriate message. This isn't the same thing as poorly reviewed marketing copy, hallucinations in government policy papers are unacceptable.

Singularities are a sign that you have a broken model.

He's not using LOC as a metric, he's making an observation about the impact of a change in the typical volume of LOC.

They're making the bet that seniors won't be needed by then. I think it's a bad bet, but it makes sense to follow through if 40% of the economy is already being occupied by this tech.

Any confirmation that a genuine port is underway? This might just be an experiment.

Diagnosis is just a small part of a doctor's job. In this case, we're also talking about an ER, it's a very physical environment. Beyond that, a doctor is able to examine a patient in a manner that isn't feasible for mac

Actually I don't really have any problems with panpsychism. It's a pretty uncommon perspective, but when discussing conscious machines, it at least presents a consistent criteria for consciousness.

Based on that reasoning anything could be conscious. If that's a bullet you want to bite, fair enough.

They don't have senses because they don't have a body. It's just a program. Do weights on a hard drive have consciousness? Does my installation of starcraft have consciousness? It doesn't make any sense.

I agree, but I don't think determinism is a factor either way. Ultimately, if arbitrary computer programs can be conscious, then it stands to reason that many other arbitrarily complex systems in the universe should also be. What makes

That's just reductive semantics. Anything can be described as "nothing but data".

LLMs have no self, sensory experience, or experience of any kind. The idea doesn't even really make sense. Even if it did, the closest analogy to biological "experience" for an LLM would be the training process, since trainin

There are a lot of people vulnerable to AI psychosis. As far as the ostensibly controversial topic of AI being conscious, it can be dismissed out of hand. There is no reason that it should be conscious, it was not designed to be, nor does i

Is it? Can you link me to that?

It's the same thing. Whether it was hallucinated upstream or in situ, the point is that it's not a real policy that the business adheres to, just something the LLM spat out.
226.
by root_axis 5mo ago
More likely its just an LLM hallucination, not a real policy that Anthropic has. Unfortunately for them, it's a bad look to showcase one of the main failure modes of their product in their own business process.

I think the gif was a sarcastic addition from the user pasting an e-mail he received into the comments.

My point is that LLMs are not humans, so projecting intuitions from human psychology onto LLMs is not helpful.

> People aren't much different Yes they are. There is absolutely zero evidence that friendlier humans are more prone to mistakes or conspiracy theories. However, even if that were true, LLMs are not humans, anthropomorphizing them

> It's an illusion of intelligence. A simulation, not an illusion. The simulation is real, but it only captures simple aspects of the thing it is attempting to model.

What's your point? Obviously, a secure server storing encrypted data on disk in a manner where it is only accessible through a secured API is not what is being discussed here.
233.
by root_axis 5mo ago
And the same logic applies.
234.
by root_axis 5mo ago
It doesn't follow logically that a human and an LLM are similar just because both are capable of deleting prod on accident.
235.
by root_axis 5mo ago
Ultimately, storing secrets on disk was the problem here. Never store secrets on disk. This is software engineering 101. The excuse that "we didn't know the scope of the token's access" is absurd. You knew it was a secre

Yeah, but $200 a month is not a sustainable price.

> The capabilities of Qwen3.6 27B or 35B-A3B are dramatically better than what was available even a few months ago. Yes, a lot better, but still terribly unreliable and far less capable than the big unquantized models.

> new hardware runs $4k-$10k last I checked Starting closer to 40k if you want something that's practical. 10k can't run anything worthwhile for SDLC at useful speeds.
239.
by root_axis 5mo ago
Not really. The hardware requirements remain indefinitely out of reach. Yes, it's possible to run tiny quantized models, but you're working with extremely small context windows and tons of hallucinations. It's fun to play wit

When they say "doing the opposite" they are referring to Anthropic's hyperbolic marketing strategy. Though, I don't think that justifies spreading FUD in the opposite direction. I also don't think the comment the GP
