    No it's because we're social animals that are supposed to be around other people. Sick of covid granting so much legitimacy to the antisocial among us. I actually think everyone sh…

    Their comment was thoughtful and at least added to conversation. Your comment is just "LLMs don't really have neurons" which is obvious to literally every user of this site includi…

    Why this gaslighting? obviously the massive companies with vested interest in monetizing your attention and data

    It didn't require saying, and you're also wrong. They don't have physical neurons like a brain but they are made up of abstractions we all agree to call neurons

    Good Editors are Invisible would make more sense. I think this only applies to the class of tools we would call "controllers"

    at no point are you justifying why this would be FUN. it's like you don't even understand what a game is supposed to be

    Obviously you're right, but none of this stuff matters to the dudes who worship him. As long as he keeps making the people they hate angry they'll support him, even at their own ex…

    games are about fun, if something only adds realism for no reason it's not good game design to add it

    you're really reaching for no apparent reason. Just move on from pattern matching machines it's not a good mental model for LLMs

    by "we" you mean an extremely small group of people who read lesswrong. Everyone else was immediately wanting to do it

    "knowledge is good" is such a naive take. Trivial example: You only have knowledge of crimes committed by immigrants but zero knowledge of crimes committed by citizens. How is that…
