AI thinking = Copy'n'paste. It has simply pillaged the text from somewhere.

You've missed a pretty big detail. 4-bit SD mode is not done as bit-bashing at all. Only 1-bit SPI mode has lots of examples of bit-bashing in the open.

All public native SD mode solutions revolve around a hardware controller handling all the data transfers, and uses a provided API wrapper. This closed situation is why I'm using it as a test of intelligence.

Since the LMM can't find any code base to reference, it therefore can't regurgitate any solution ... so responds accordingly. I suppose that's better than saying it has a solution then producing complete garbage.

I can assure everyone that the scheme here is a piece of shit. It was done purely on politics to deter going green. The new government came in on the promise of making everything dirty again. Copycat of the drill-baby-drill mentality.

As others in the comments have said, if it was to pay for roading while still encouraging the green transition then it would have been applied to petrol vehicles too.

Great, already the most expensive electricity and now they want to push that even higher. And for what? LLMs that are far from living up to expectations and in an over stretched bubble that'll going to burst long before any of these projects can ever come to fruition.

But yet marketing spin works.

We were being sold on LMMs achieving "AGI" and more recently moving even further to "super" intelligence. Investments are based on those promises.

But it isn't happening. That's a bubble ripe to burst.

The article rightly points out that marketing of LLMs has the tech moving to achieve "AGI" and then "super" intelligence. The sales pitch for further investments throughout this year is built of these promises.

LLMs are doomed to fail at ever being intelligence at all. Yet investments as predicated going fully intelligent. That's a bubble! And a big one!

Take your pick, you're really talking about PR spin, FUD, brain washing. Everyone loves to say everyone else is a sucker. We all have our filters. It doesn't say anything about intelligence. More about picking sides in a fight.

It's about ad revenue. All the big LLMs are chasing ad revenue that Alphabet and Meta currently dominate.

LLM advancements have completely stagnated (Nothing's changed, other than bigger spends, from when OpenAI started) and Alphabet has now demonstrated it won't be giving up it's share of ad revenue.

Game over.

LLMs can't do interactive work. At best it can form-fill. If the phone call is a straight forward process request it'll work, but as soon as a problem arises it'll go down the toilet.
Customer Support jobs will be back in human hands or the companies will go out of business.

Capitalism at its finest!

Yeah, this. I prompted just a couple days ago for an example code gen of bit-bashing SD 4-bit SD mode and got garbage. Told it to use the specs from SD Association too.

If these LLMs can't see something to regurgitate then they're useless. There's no intelligence. They're just the new search engine is all.

The reality is AI is shit and these kids can see that plain and simple. All these bosses salivating at sacking everyone are wreaking their businesses and in 4 years will be out of business.

So a yes then.

is USA, then?

Credit cards predate even cellphones. Having handheld devices for job management also predates the Internet. As you say, they add tech as they choose.
