  • Kind of serious question...

    If you are in the tiling team, is this some sort of pattern in you? To be dissident of the "mainstream" way of doing things?

    Do you see yourself also taking "the other", custom, method for most areas of your life?

  • Humans' behavior about LLMs is the same as animals with a mirror: they believe there is "another" in there. It's just their reflexion

  • Hahah, yeah, maybe I am doing that. that's why it is a shower thought, not a research paper proposal.

    The thought comes from my (kind or recent) study of the algebra/calculus under LLMs (at least the feedforward and backpropagation part of them)

    The interesting part is that my ass is non-differentiable at x=0:

     
        
Lim x→0⁺ δass/δx
≠
Lim x→0⁻ δass/δx

  • I indeed have not read the link you shared. However, I am not discrediting your comment or source. I apologize if it came across with a hostile tone. On the contrary, thanks for commenting on my post with an interesting article.

    My intent is not "parroting" AI-bad. The original post and my follow up comments are the result of... well, a shower. (I am a CS researcher myself, and I have been studying AI fundamentals for the last month)

    My point is that the behavior you mention may as well be also part of the "reflexion" of the human behavior. After all, it is just text, attention, feedforward, and repeat on human text. We tend to create "conventions" when we talk: OP, TL;DR, IMHO, ELI5... are some examples of little agreements we take to compress information. We, indirectly reward that behavior. It makes sense that a program that detects and replicates human behavior will also pick that up.

    In any case. Thanks for the comment, cheers!

  • This is nothing else than the reflexion I am talking about. It is not a reflexion of you, the person chatting with the bot, but an "average" reflexion of what humanity has expressed in the data llms have been trained on.

    If a mirror is placed in front of another mirror, the "infinite tunnel" only exists in the mind of the observer.

  • I disagree about the dichotomy. I think you can (1) understand what LLMs actually are. (2) See the value of such technology.

    In both cases being factual (not being deceived) and not being malicious (not attempting to deceive others)

    I think a reasonable use of these tools is as a "sidekick" (you being the main character). Some tasks can be assigned to it so you save some time, but the thinking and the actual mental model of what is being done shall always be your responsibility.

    For example, LLMs are good as an interface to quickly lookup within manuals, books, clarify specific concepts, or find the proper terms for a vague idea (so that you can research the topic using the appropriate terms)

    Of course, this is just an opinion. 100% open to discussion.

  • Interesting take. Could you elaborate?

    My post comes from the study of the algebra and stats that enable LLMs (well, part of it. i am not done with the "attention".

  • But they are a reflexion of ourselves. If you look at the algebra and stats underneath, you'll realize that they spit out whatever it is in us

  • I dream of a system with the same philosophy as unix: simple tools with one and only one job, that pipe with each other.

    perhaps, defining some "common ground formats" to smooth the in/out across apps.

    developers and apps will eventually come. but drivers, that depends on the manufacturers
