  • Because “ai” ad we colloquially know today are language models: they train on and can produce language, that’s what they are designed on. Yes, they can produce images and also videos, but they don’t have any form of real knowledge or understanding, they only predict the next word or the next pixel based on their prompt and their vast examples of words and images. You can only talk to them because that’s what they are for.

    Feeding research papers will make it spit research-sounding words, which probably will contain some correct information, but at best an llm trained on that would be useful to search through existing research, it would not be able to make new one





  • 12 years ago we got two sibling kittens, an orange male and a black female. I never celebrated their birthday, but this post reminded me of them :)

    The black one is still with us, getting a little old but doing quite fine. The orange one disappeared some 4 years ago. I just hope he was unhappy and found a better place, because we once saw him some time after he was gone.
