    The fact that you refuse to engage with my points tells me otherwise. You're drawing meaningless distinctions, anyone who has ever used Cyc will tell you that it makes massive mist…

    Understanding comes in many forms. My uncle will not be able to model the fuel flow in his car's engine using the Navier–Stokes equations, yet he can still drive better than me. Wh…

    At this point, I strongly urge you to think about what could possibly change your mind. Because if you can't think of anything, then that means that this opinion is not founded on …

    What's your definition of "correct" then? If a system is "accidentally correct" the majority of the time, when does it stop becoming "accidental"? You cannot trust any system in th…

    Why do you feel the need to arbitrarily ascribe some ideology to random people based on one comment? I'm not "techno-utopian" in any sense of the word; I believe that the current A…

    No, the answers aren't just "plausible", they are correct the vast majority of the time. You can try this for yourself or look at any benchmark, leaderboard or even just listen to …

    Are you going to spam this same link in every single thread about LLMs on HN? People have provided good arguments refuting whatever you're trying to say here, but you just keep pos…

    The point was that for many tasks, AI has similar failure rates compared to humans while being significantly cheaper. The ability for human error rates to be reduced by spending ev…

    A system of checks and balances also costs orders of magnitude more money.

    Exactly, we need a much more granular approach to evaluating intelligence and generality. Our current conception of intelligence largely works because humans share evolutionary his…

    There is a difference between poor reasoning and no reasoning. SOTA LLMs correctly answer a significant number of these questions correctly. The likelihood of doing so without reas…

    They don't. Which you can easily check with any of the dozen web apps currently implementing the GPT-4o tokenizer.

    Here's hoping that the average HN commenter will actually read the paper and realize that the study was performed using GPT-3.5.

    I honestly don't think it is a matter of opinion, though. Her voice has a few very distinct characteristics, the most significant of which being the vocal fry / huskiness, that are…

    That's not the purpose though, clearly. If anything, you could make the argument that they're trading in on the association to the movie "Her", that's it. Neither Sky nor the new v…

    Apologies from me as well. I've been unnecessarily aggressive in my comments. Seeing very uninformed but smug takes on AI here over the last year has made me very wary of interacti…

    You consistently refuse to take the necessary reasoning steps yourself. If your next reply also requires me to lead you every single millimeter to the conclusion you should have re…

    No, think about it. The granularity of the interface (the tokenizer) is the problem, the actual model could count just fine. If the legally blind person never had had good vision o…

    Please try to actually understand what og_kalu is saying instead of being obtuse about something any grade-schooler intuitively grasps. Imagine a legally blind person, they can bar…

    Your English is absolutely fine and your answers in this thread clearly addressed the points brought up by other commenters. I have no idea what that guy is on about.

    I never made the claim that there were no solutions to the problems outlined above. In fact, I implemented exactly what you've linked long ago. This doesn't, of course, change the …

    I mean sure, I could solve the issue with a better strategy, but what bugs me is that this is a problem in the first place. Should accurate time really still be an issue in 2024?

    I only have access to Android devices, so my claim likely won't extend to Apple. In fact, I've been told by a friend that Apple watches do in fact use the GPS signal to sync the cl…
