Apple Intelligence

Fucking obviously. Until Data's positronic brains becomes reality, AI is not actual intelligence.

AI is not A I. I should make that a tshirt.

It’s an expensive carbon spewing parrot.

It's a very resource intensive autocomplete

I think it's important to note (i'm not an llm I know that phrase triggers you to assume I am) that they haven't proven this as an inherent architectural issue, which I think would be the next step to the assertion.

do we know that they don't and are incapable of reasoning, or do we just know that for x problems they jump to memorized solutions, is it possible to create an arrangement of weights that can genuinely reason, even if the current models don't? That's the big question that needs answered. It's still possible that we just haven't properly incentivized reason over memorization during training.

if someone can objectively answer "no" to that, the bubble collapses.

No shit. This isn't new.

[–] mavu@discuss.tchncs.de 57 points 18 hours ago

No way!

Statistical Language models don't reason?

But OpenAI, robots taking over!

[–] GaMEChld@lemmy.world 20 points 17 hours ago (7 children)

Most humans don't reason. They just parrot shit too. The design is very human.

[–] skisnow@lemmy.ca 8 points 10 hours ago

I hate this analogy. As a throwaway whimsical quip it'd be fine, but it's specious enough that I keep seeing it used earnestly by people who think that LLMs are in any way sentient or conscious, so it's lowered my tolerance for it as a topic even if you did intend it flippantly.

[–] elbarto777@lemmy.world 25 points 15 hours ago (3 children)

LLMs deal with tokens. Essentially, predicting a series of bytes.

Humans do much, much, much, much, much, much, much more than that.

lol is this news? I mean we call it AI, but it’s just LLM and variants it doesn’t think.

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Proving it matters. Science is constantly proving any other thing that people believe is obvious because people have an uncanning ability to believe things that are false. Some people will believe things long after science has proven them false.

Thank you Captain Obvious! Only those who think LLMs are like "little people in the computer" didn't knew this already.

[–] TheFriar@lemm.ee 7 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Yeah, well there are a ton of people literally falling into psychosis, led by LLMs. So it’s unfortunately not that many people that already knew it.

[–] joel_feila@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

Dude they made chat gpt a little more boit licky and now many people are convinced they are literal messiahs. All it took for them was a chat bot and a few hours of talk.

this is so Apple, claiming to invent or discover something "first" 3 years later than the rest of the market
