I got my X3 a few months ago and I've read more books since then than in the last 3 years before that combined. Love the little thing.
I'm pretty sure it made me the scientist I am today.
Wie erklärst du dir den gleichen Aufstieg der Rechten in anderen europäischen Staaten sowie den USA? Hat Merkel da auch überall regiert?
I absolutely love the taste of meat. But I saw how animals are treated in the industry. So I don't eat it because I don't want to fund it. Would I eat it if I was guaranteed that the animal was happy all their life and didn't notice being killed? Maybe. Probably. But that isn't possible so I don't. There are so many good meat alternatives by now that it really isn't that hard anymore. For me it started with trying those and realizing they're not bad at all. I would really encourage you to try a few of the available options. Beyond is really good. And when you know that no animal had to suffer and die for your short moment of enjoying a meal, it tastes even better.
It's just that it's a really odd "explanation". Good and bad depends a lot on who you ask. Millions of people would probably disagree with your judgement. I'm neither a Robbie Williams fan nor a music expert, but I'm pretty sure "his music is just bad" is not a valid explanation for the phenomenon.
What makes the Spice Girls better than Robbie Williams?
What are those objective criteria that classify music as "bad"?
Sure, Europeans just have bad taste in music, while Americans have good taste in music. That explains everything.
German here. He's super famous in Germany. I used to think he was an international superstar and only learned a couple of years ago that nobody knows him in the US. Still don't quite understand how that happened. How is "Feel" and "Angels" not stuck in everyone's head every once in a while?
Quantity of training material doesn’t confer new abilities. It makes the resulting weights more representative of the language of the materials, but it doesn’t give something the text doesn’t have.
You left out half of my sentence though. Size of the model does in fact confer new abilities. See, for example, this paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.07682
All of the problems you describe that LLMs have - it's true, and it holds for current LLMs. But it is not necessarily a fundamental limitation. Time will show how much better LLMs will become. I think the time of super fast progress is probably over, but there will still be improvements.
That is a damning verdict for a machine literally invented for computing. If there is one thing a computer should be good at, it should be the thing it was built for.
An LLM is not a computer. An LLM runs on a computer. You're mixing up two things here.
I think you vastly overestimate human abilities. It's a phenomenon I come across here on Lemmy all the time. It's like people believe their brains are capable of some sort of "analytical logic" as opposed to "numerical logic". As if "understanding" something was some sort of godly ability. I don't believe in a supernatural spirit or anything like that. We learn from external influences, we are statistical parrots as well. There is no absolute truth mechanism in our brains. We're conscious, yes, but just because understanding something feels so absolutely logical and true to you doesn't mean it's not just a result of the statistics your brain has learned from.
Was mich immer tierisch nervt: ich stehe draußen irgendwo rum, z.B. weil ich auf eine Bahn warte oder so, und plötzlich kommt so ein Wespenvieh und fliegt aufdringlich an mir herum. Setzt sich auf mich, fliegt mir ins Gesicht, und lässt einfach nicht von mir ab. Ich hab dann immer tierisch Schiss, dass ich das Biest irgendwie aus Versehen einenge und sie mich sticht. So ähnlich ist es mir einmal passiert - Wespe ist offenbar beim Gehen zwischen meinen Arm und den Riemen meiner Tasche geflogen und als sich beides einander näherte - zack, in den Arm gestochen. Also fuchtel ich dann eben doch rum, wenn eine nicht von mir ablassen will, damit sie verdammt noch mal abhaut. Was soll man sonst machen, stehen bleiben und warten bis sie einem im Gesicht rumkrabbelt?
