I call it denial. Given GPT4, I am terrified of what three letter agencies have available today.

Do you think the 3 letter agencies have better AI or just similar LLMs aimed at inteligence purposes ?

Definitely. One of the most incredible things about LLMs is that you don't need to design an API to get it to execute stuff, you don't need to normalize and scour through data, you can just ask it to retrieve it and export it in the format that you want.

If compute is not an issue, then the sky's the limit.

I will actually go one further, they have AGI or near AGI.

I'd bet my house over a donut that a Spanish-speaking employee at Nvidia came up with that name. As my friend put it: "hmm, CuLitho de envidia."

For those that don't speak Spanish, this is GPT4's frog dissection: > The joke implies that a Spanish-speaking employee at Nvidia might have come up with the name "CuLitho" because it sounds similar to the Spanish phrase "culo de envidia," which means "butt of envy" or "an envious butt." The phrase is often used to describe someone who is envious or jealous of another person's success or possessions.

I am spaniard, and I can tell you this is 100% accurate.

I feel ChatGPT "understands" the vast majority of things better than me, which is very worrying. It's only going to get better too.

It's worrying for you

> And the fact that you are native Spanish speaker makes little difference here. How trustworthy is a native Spanish speaker? You will know it when you navigate the Spanish speaking Internet and find most of it are antivaxxers, flat earthers and people that believe "US Navy" is a given name ("Usnavy"). That has absolutely nothing to do with the topic of how something is pronounced in Spanish, which is ostensibly some…

That last paragraph was critique of the Spanish-speaking Internet, with a non-serious tone. A critique rooted in frustration due to exposure to the abundance of low quality content. There are oasis of high quality content, but the situation is worse than over here. The proliferation of flat earth theory (as a movement, in its modern incarnation) and antivaxxers started in the English-speaking Internet.

> with a non-serious tone.

That’s a hilarious escape hatch to try using once you saw how badly people reacted to it. “GUYS it’s ok I was only joking!” Absolutely nothing in your comment came off as being non-serious in tone, and nothing whatsoever in your further responses indicates that was even remotely the case either. Sarcasm doesn’t transfer well over text, but there’s absolutely no way you’re expecting people to buy that.

No shit Sherlock, it’s as if that was my point or something.

That reminds me the windows app Inkulator! Great name for all romance language speakers!

That comment paragraph has non-serious written all over it and if you failed to see it is because you are desperately looking for a reason to be angry.

Do you want a reason to be angry? Try finding a better reason, like the environment, or nuclear proliferation, etc.

If we steered society towards what makes people comfortable the world would be a very horrible place to live.

Galileo, for example, would have said "OK guys, sorry for making you feel certain way, I better stop using my telescope and doing science so your imaginary friend is not angry".

Have a good day.

Technically, does not mean anything. 1) th is not used in Spanish 2) th would be likely hispanized as z 3) taken literally would sound culit-jo If you ignore that you are left with "culito" which is ass + diminutive = small ass

Could you please give an example of a word where th is hispanized as z?

Good point. Hispanized is not the correct term here.

What I meant is that the closest sound to "th" in Spanish would be "z" or "d" instead of "t", as other replies have pointed out.

Or, the more realistic explanation, which is that you were in the middle of a heated discussion, said something that wasn’t reasonable or appropriate, got called out on it by multiple people, then backtracked and pretended you were joking the whole time. Which you clearly weren’t.

There was no tone shift. There was no /s. There was no “non-serious” tone there. You wanted to call into question their credentials, and found the most idiotic thing you could and ran with it.

The fact that every single one of your replies is serious and aggressive in tone does not help your case. Obviously that one paragraph is the sole exception, obviously.

Next time, just take the L in stride.

While it's true that ChatGPT gives amazing explanations in many context, this one is not particularly good. The point is not that CuLitho is similar to "culo" (ass), as the similarity is not that obvious. The point is that it's practically identical to "culito" (little ass, where "little" is typically not literally about size, but more of an endearing term - another translation could be cute ass). The similarity is l…

Sure, but what does "culito de envidia" mean, other than "little butt of envy"?

That's not how languages work. ChatGPT was wrong about it.

Interesting conclusion, but wrong nevertheless. You saw what you wanted to see.

Being a native speaker does not give you a final say in a discussion about language, that was the main point being made, with a bit of condiment.
