vrighter@discuss.tchncs.deto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Considering that AI is "hallucinating", and able to make up information that seems true based on what the model was trained on, what is the difference between current AI and the human brain?5·9 days agoon the contrary, “temperature” is intentionally injected randomness in the process.
edit: which, to be clear] is not a good thing
vrighter@discuss.tchncs.deto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Considering that AI is "hallucinating", and able to make up information that seems true based on what the model was trained on, what is the difference between current AI and the human brain?7·9 days agotfney aren’t even errors. They are the system working as designed. The system is designed with randomness in mind so that the model can hallucinate, intentionally. The system can’t ever be made reliable, not without some sort of paradigm shift.

for copy and paste.
Not one, but three point oh!

And a bunch of just plain bad stuff.
Butterfly keyboards, magic mouse, touch bar on macs, not cherry picked at all. There are tons of examples
so no. Before llms came around, lots of people were hobby programmers. We learned. Sorry to be blunt, but being a hobbyist is not an excuse. The best programmers I know are hobbyists
vrighter@discuss.tchncs.deto Programming@programming.dev•AI coders think they’re 20% faster — but they’re actually 19% slower2·11 days agoi haven’t come across many. But i have written a lot.
by “completing it” do you mean having something that seems like it works? Or something that you know works? If it’s the former then you’ve just had the computer do the easy part (creating something) and skipped the actually hard part (making it robust).
Are errors handled properly, is all input being validated? If using https, are you actually verifying certificates? This sort of thing
vrighter@discuss.tchncs.deto Programming@programming.dev•AI coders think they’re 20% faster — but they’re actually 19% slower3·12 days agocryptic != complex. Are they cryptic? yes. Are they complex? not really, if you can understand “one or more” or “zero or more” and some other really simple concepts like “one of these” or “not one of these” or “this is optional”. You could explain these to a child. It’s only because they look cryptic that people think they are complex. Unless you start using backreferences and advanced concepts like those (which are not usually needed in most cases) they are very simple. long != complex
the “guardrails” they mention. They are a bunch of if/then statements looking to work around methods that the developers have found to produce undesirable outputs. It doesn’t ever mean “the llm will not bo doing this again”. It means “the llm wont do this when it is asked in this particular way”, which always leaves the path open for “jailbreaking”. Because you will almost always be able to ask a differnt way that the devs (of the guardrails, they don’t have much control over the llm itself) did not anticipate.
Expert systems were kind of “if we keep adding if/then statements, we would eventually cover all the bases and get a smart, reliable system”. That didn’t work then. It won’t work now either

Complex regexes are long, not difficult. They appear complex because you have to “inline” everything. They really are not that hard.
vrighter@discuss.tchncs.deto World News@lemmy.world•Most people in France, Germany, Italy and Spain would support UK rejoining EU, poll findsEnglish56·12 days agoI would support them joining. But of course no fucking tantrums will be tolerated. You will abide by the same rules as everyone else.

Does it work in all cases? Can I be confident that it will find all instances i care about, or will I still have to comb the code manually?
funny how a(n implicitly) rooted linux computer is fine, but a rooted handheld linux computer is the devil and insecure.
