>Is GPT simply a Markov chain?

Yes, but much more efficiently stored and looked up than just a massive table. The way its very large space is encoded in a small amount of memory is what makes GPT so interesting.

that code is severely broken by using unsigned int instead of uintptr_t to represent addresses.

I use it as a Google search and text summarizer. So far seems to be the only truly useful thing to me. So I imagine services for that will appear. Maybe Google itself will incorporate it to stay relevant.

If you think crypto is a natural conduit for scammers and frauds, then wait til you see what LLMs will cause in that area...

Good article.

Sorry, its not an AI, just an autocomplete with self-attention mechanism. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Huh? I literally just gave you an example of tech that automated away what 90% of programmers were doing.

If youre doomed by a fancy markov chain chatbot, you were never gonna make it in the first place.

Why do you think that?

Huh? I see nix more and more in the wild.

Then youre wrong. There is no market incentive for layoffs due to GPT-like technology, as I have demonstrated above. Similar breakthroughs "replacing jobs" have happened before in the field of software engineering, this is nothing new or unprecedented. Its merely another tool that will become in widespread use to increase production.

What i think will lead to mass layoffs is the current recession rather.

no, our brains arent based on transformers.

and the issue of lost uncertainty is inherrent to this, yes.

to fix this, a new type of llm would have to be invented. this particular branch of development may very well be a dead end.

"your comment confidently states this is unfixable - presumably based on the frequency you've seen similar text on the internet. why should anyone believe the veracity of your statement? "

no its because GPT is based on transformers.

"Yes, the industry is going to shrink massively"

You meant "expand massively" i think. Did all the programmers manually making machine code get fired and the job of programmer disappear when compilers were invented and totally replaced these jobs? No, it just changed to use the new tool.

There wont be any unprecedented mass layoffs, despite what the jaded STEM-hating twitter crowd wants. Companies will simply make their programmers use these tools to increase the amount of produce per employee, and make software that would have been otherwise financially impossible to be made. Because the competition will do so too to get ahead.

there is no channel for uncertainty.

LLMs of this type will just start making up shit when they dont know something. because they simply generate the most probable next token based on previous x tokens. this is not fixable.

this alone makes these LLMs practically unusable in vast majority of real-world applications where you would otherwise imagine this tech to be used.

here, ill correct it: GPT4 is the first model with enough parameters to remember and summarize the text found somewhere on internet correctly.

thats insane...

i hope youre joking.

Constant lying. Its just Fox for liberals.

My favourite is when the Clinton emails were leaked, they straight up told the viewers on TV that the viewers will go to jail if they read the emails and that only they (CNN) could legally read the emails and tell the viewers the content. That was a funny episode of political damage control.

If you attack A, you must love B. Kindergarten tier logic.

The number is meaningless without comparison to others.

Nobody cancelled anyone. How can the alleged "rightwing" viewers or commentators cancel BBC? Can they fire the directors and ensure they dont get employed? Or what are you talking about?

Corrupt BBC managers decided this on their own.

i r8 2/8

it will be the next financial bubble like dot-com, im calling it

Calculator that computes that 3 + 2 is 8 should indeed not be trusted much.

Do you know any such calculators?

The supposed late stage of capitalism is something used to call contemporary state of affairs for some 100 years now.

Two more weeks until RoP goes to 0!

Trust the plan!

If you live in USA or western europe, real living standards have been decreasing for decades now. But thats probably not something youd particularly notice over 5 years.

>Is this a lot?

No.

are you calling for an anglo genocide?
