  • Leaving aside the questions whether it would benefit us, what makes you think LLM won’t bring about technical singularity? Because, you know, the word LLM doesn’t mean that much… It just means it’s a model, that is “large” (currently taken to mean many parameters), and is capable of processing languages.

    Don’t you think whatever that will bring about the singularity, will at the very least understand human languages?

    So can you clarify, what is it that you think won’t become AGI? Is it transformer? Is it any models that trained in the way we train llms today?

    Well, you described pretty well what llms were trained to do. But from there you can’t derive how they are doing it. Maybe they don’t have real knowledge, or maybe they do. Right now literally no one can definitively claim one way or the other, not even top of the field ML researchers. (They may have opinions though)

    I think it’s perfectly justified to hate AI, but it’s better to have a less biased view of what it is.







  • That’s not it. You are just describing determinism, not superdeterminism. Superdeterminism says not only are the observations performed by you and your partner determined, but they are also determined in such a way to make quantum entanglement looks real. i.e. there’s no quantum entanglement, the particles are independent, but the universe conspires to make you measure in such a way that your results appear correlated.

    And if you generalize measurement to mean any interaction you have with the world, you get what I described earlier.


  • Superdeterminism to me is the worst. It basically means the Universe looks the way it does because it just is. Like it’s not because particles move, interact, based on a set of fundamental laws and that ultimately gives rise to the universe we see. No, superdeterminism means there’s no rules, the universe is just made like this. Every particle is meticulously put into place to make it look as if there are physical laws, like a grand conspiracy.

    It’s kinda like last-Tuesdayism.
