@james406 Bollocks. Show us the numbers.

@johnennis LLM AI cannot do maths, even at grade school level. It searches its training data for text and symbols that match the prompt and produces an answer to match, even if it's hopelessly wrong. Add random numbers and symbols to a known problem: the human ignores them, the AI cannot.

@sander496 Yes, a 90 degree angle is a convenient mathematical fiction. Reality grinds on regardless of how well your maths defines it, or not.

@GaryMarcus Please explain your usage of this term now.

[david bennett @Davidus_Rex]

@trikcode Words change. Script, prompt, task, memory, parameter, hallucination, jailbreak, deepfake, agent all had meanings before AI, and now they have new meanings. Get over it.

[david bennett @Davidus_Rex]

@GaryMarcus Obviously. So some investors get badly burned and a few companies share the AI commodity market at 1/1000 the current price. But which ones to back?

[david bennett @Davidus_Rex]

@adamtaggart I don't. Not in a million years.

@StringHemu Git is insanely clever in concept, unbelievably bad in UI design and execution. Answer: find a better UI. Fork, Kraken, TortoiseGit, those are just the ones I've used, there are plenty more.

[david bennett @Davidus_Rex]

@krunalbuilds Boring. Erlang obviously.

[david bennett @Davidus_Rex]

@KenTheRogers Because you're not an engineer, so you'd have no idea what it means or how important it is.

@fchollet Stock markets are highly efficient at setting the price for a traded instrument. If you discover an inefficiency (mis-pricing) you can trade on it and make money. By doing that you help to make the market more efficient.

@TrueAIHound Bollocks. Turing proved the theory of computation. Every computer emulates a Turing Machine (more or less). Babbage tried to build one, others succeeded with the engineering, but Turing did the theory that made it all possible.

[david bennett @Davidus_Rex]

@_kelindi Have you never heard of open source? Linux? MySQL? Billions of users not enough scale for you?

[david bennett @Davidus_Rex]

@suraj_sharma14 No, the pushback comes from people who make money from their copyright works and AI is not paying.

[david bennett @Davidus_Rex]

@OKairra19658 @ag909615 Correct.

[david bennett @Davidus_Rex]

@3mireeee @ag909615 Correct.

@r0ck3t23 It's a prediction. It's wrong. They always are.

[david bennett @Davidus_Rex]

@davepl1968 @raghu_venugopal Medicine is engineering of the human body based on science and 'what works'.

[david bennett @Davidus_Rex]

@plainionist Full spectrum. Superb (Linux) to dreadful.

@haider1 It's a prediction. It's wrong. They always are.
