@SIGKITTEN@OpenAI@ajambrosino Can't believe you got acquihired for an animated cat on mobile smh (seriously, like I said, litter was the only good mobile solution for my weird-ass setup. Thank you so much for putting it together, and congrats!)
@libpol_org@badlogicgames do you actually interact with the company's products and announced contracts in a meaningful way, or just follow corporate messaging? Because the only thing worse than anthropomorphizing an LLM is anthropomorphizing a pre--IPO business with shareholders.
@anselm_io@mitsuhiko No, you're interacting with the output of something that resembles a human's output. there's no lived experience, cultural affinities or anything else experienced by human senses or a human mind. LLMs are trained on human outputs, not human capabilities.
@katienotopoulos Tons of companies used things like Notion which had questionable workspace to public documentation layers. I would assume it wasn't the CMS but the project-planning layer with an oopsie on the share settings that got hit by a scraper.
@tszzl AI doesn't have this because labs have to advertise opportunities because they suck at judging industry fit. but there isn't a place in history for the smartest LLM minds, but the ones that link it to the most societal-changing applications. See, e.g. Nikola Tesla.
@tszzl This relies on an unclear antecedent: previous technological outcomes are known because they supplied a clear implementation: oil in gasoline for cars, but also plastics and so on. A tech advancement doesn't enter history books until its clear downline effects are traced.
Is there a @GaryMarcus for sane people? Like an active observer of the AI space as a whole, rather than a use-case contrarian, who actually interacts with the space but doesn't require cable news hits because he no longer does research and is irrelevant otherwise?
@LLMJunky is that I think Elon"s industry leader picks are subject to a higher variance. He might hit 4th on frontier AI, first on private space, 2nd on EVs and strike out on space compute. still amazing as a track record but doesn't hit IP valuation.
@LLMJunky I wanted to be careful on this: picking three or four industries will set up a person for life. picking the methodology for dominating thar category is like 20 people in any area. Elon is already 1 in 20. definite special mind and he crosses lndustries. What I wanted to suggest
