An AI leaderboard suggests the newest reasoning models used in chatbots are producing less accurate results because of higher hallucination rates. Experts say the problem is bigger than that
It’s not shoving AI slop into it again to get a new AI slop? Until it stops, because it reached the point where it’s just done?
What ancient wizzardry do you use for your reasoning at home if not that?
But like look, we’ve had shit like this since forever, it’s increasingly obvious that most people will cheer for anything, so the new ideas just get bigger and bigger. Can’t wait for the replacement, I dare not even think about what’s next. But for the love of fuck, don’t let it be quantums. Please, I beg the world.
There are many interesting AI applications, LLM or otherwise, but I’m talking about the IT bubble, that grows so big it will finally consume the industry. If it ever pops, the correction will not be pretty. For anyone.
I evaded the BS for now, but it feels like I won’t be able to hide much longer. And it saddens me. I used to love IT :(
Most of us have no use for quantum computers. That’s a government/research thing. I have no idea what the next disruptive technology will be. They are working hard on AGI, which has the potential to be genuinely disruptive and world changing, but LLMs are not the path to get there and I have no idea whether they are anywhere close to achieving it.
The goalpost has shifted a lot in the past few years, but in the broader and even narrower definition, current language models are precisely what was meant by AI and generally fall into that category of computer program. They aren’t broad / general AI, but definitely narrow / weak AI systems.
I get that it’s trendy to shit on LLMs, often for good reason, but that should not mean we just redefine terms because some system doesn’t fit our idealized under-informed definition of a technical term.

What is your definition of reasoning?

It’s a bit fucking expensive for a grammar tool.
I get that it gets logarithmically more expensive for every last bit of grammar, and some languages have very ridiculous nonsensical rules.
But I wish it had some broader use, that would justify its cost.

But that won’t happen, since the bubble rose on promises of gorillions of returns, and those have not manifested yet.
We are so fucking stupid, I hate this timeline.
I work in this field. In my company, we use smaller, specialized models all the time. Ignore the VC hype bubble.

Surprise surprise, most of us have no use for LLMs.
And yet everyone and their gradma is using it for everything.
People asked GPT who would the next pope be.
Or which car to buy.
Or what’s a good local salary.
I’m so fucking tired of all the shit.
ai is just too nifty word even if its gross misuse of the term. large language model doesnt roll of the tongue as easily.

well, i guess i can stop feeling like i’m using wrong word for them then
