A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Yeah no shit, AI doesn't think. Context doesn't exist for it. It doesn't even understand the meanings of individual words at all, none of them.
Each word or phrase is a numerical token in an order that approximates sample data. Everything is a statistic to AI, it does nothing but sort meaningless interchangeable tokens.
People cannot "converse" with AI and should immediately stop trying.
We don't think either. We're just a chemical soup that tricked ourselves to believe we think.
Machines and algorithms don’t have emergent properties, organic things like us do.
The current AI chats are emergent properties. The very fact that I looks like it's talking with us despite being just probabilistic models of a neural network is an emergent effect. The neural network is just a bunch of numbers.
