And how do you know LLMs can’t tell that they are involved in a conversation?

It has no memory, for one. What makes you think that it does know its in a conversation?

That does not follow. I can’t speak for you, but I can tell if I’m involved in a conversation or not.

It allows us to conclude that an LLM doesn’t “think” about what it is saying. Based on the mechanics, the LLM doesn’t even know it’s a participant in the conversation.

Well, the neural network is given a prefix (series of tokens) and a token, and it spits out how likely is it that the token follows the prefix. Text is generated by calculating this probability for all known tokens, then picking one random, weighted based on the calculated probabilities.

The burden of proof is on those who say that LLMs do think.

You could then tie a bunch of trucks together, and have them run on this special lane.

What if it’s a ten hour drive?

One factor is that on the internet the only thing people know about you is your opinion that disagrees with them.

We do.

Maybe the genie is not actually obligated to grant wishes, and could just turn you inside out if they wanted to.

Unlike the classic prisoners dilemma, this isn’t a nash equilibrium. When I know that the other person pulls their switch, I’d improve my outcome by not pulling mine. Compare to the prisoners dilemma, where not snitching when the other side snitches earns you five years in prison.

Users don’t cost much to keep around, especially if they don’t post. The data needed for the account would be authentication data, and post data, the second of which doesn’t apply to users who don’t post, and the first one being negligible compared to the amount of space available on a common hard drive. So, why not just give them a chance?

The joke is twofold:

1. Some people, mostly authoritarian communists, claim that the ‘tankie’ is being used to describe anybody too far left.
2. Democrats are by now very right on immigration.

Plus the only places that are left to build giant factories are distant from population centers.

You’re forgetting about eminent domain. Clearly, giant factory on American soil is a public good, even if it’s privately owned. Hence, the government will seize the homes and give the land to the corp. The prices of the houses will fall first, because who wants to buy a house that’s going to get bulldozed, reducing the compensation the government has to pay to the homeowners, potentially causing them to be upside down on their mortgages. This will leave them with nothing, or potentially even debt, when their homes get sized.

I figure with Lemmy having much fewer users, there’s less potential for toxic communities to form.

How so? Can you list some examples of upvoted things that are wildly wrong?
