This was my first thought, we aren’t going to develop the whole world. That’s not how this works. Who said that was a goal of… well … anyone’s?

That’s a rhetorical question. Frfr tho, does that remind me work on your instance only, or what’s the deal with that?

Yeah, I giggle when I people talk about rtfm like they’re tech gods.

Anything I need to know for my job - It’s in the source code.

I think where we may differ in opinion is where the power lies in this situation. To me, it’s all about having the money for the compute, which means its propaganda for the wealthy. That’s nothing new. I do not expect a significant increase in societal support for these types of messages. At least not on a historical scale.

You seem to imply the LLM can at the very least have an emergent agenda, or seeming agenda, of its own. I do not believe that to be the case. LLMs that generate output that doesn’t align with the monied interests will be considered misaligned and discarded.

You’re missing my point. An LLM can’t be “smarter” or “smart” at all. It isn’t sentient or conscious. It doesn’t even have a stable internal model of the world. What people call “hallucinations” are simply the random words selected at the edges of its convincing predictive power. Personification of LLMs is all marketing. They’re really just well presented statistical models.

Where are these AGI systems? All I hear about is LLMs fooling execs, which is basically them just falling for a fast talking computer.

It’ll be possible. Whether someone will take the time and cost on are another question altogether.

If you do, make sure you build in a note taking/comment feature so they can track how its changed from what you’ve documented.

They said make electric cars fast, and you’ll get car guys to buy in. It was true.

Now they’re making linux make video games faster and prettier…

I dont know if there will ever be a year of the linux desktop, but this is the kind of stuff you gotta do to get there.
