I think the principle you are missing is that LLMs can ONLY hallucinate. That's all their probability based "reasoning" allows. Their training data is not complete, and even if it were, there'd still be biases built into it. The reason we judge some result from them accurate is because we have ulterior sources of information against which we check. We judge something hallucination because it conflicts with our seemingly independent information. But all LLMs can do is follow markov chains, they have no concept of an accurate response or an inaccurate response.

Also, the world is open ended, an LLM's world stops at their training data.

"the US president beefs with wind." The alleged U.S. president is nothing but wind.

His latest bright idea is to tariff Canada for the smoke from their wild fires while conveniently not mentioning the ones in Wisconsin and Minnesota.

I hope someone suggests to him he have a wall built to keep out the "Canadian" smoke. That would be sheer enjoyment for me.

Errrm....so if only half the people must pay, then they will owe $800/person. If only a quarter.....you do see where this is headed, yes?

"But what do you do when the wind isn't blowing or the sun isn't shining?"

You run on the battery power you saved during when the sun was shining and the wind was blowing. And there are other ways of storing energy.

Come to think of it, look at all the coincidences that happened just to make volcanoes possible here on Earth. So the Universe was fine tuned to produce volcanoes. This is the Volanic Principle.

Let's abstract a bit. Why are so many universal constants aligned to produce WhizzyX? This is the WhizzyX Principle. Now that we've abstracted the general principle, it is no longer fun playing this game.

"neoliberalism" Sound more like neoReaganism. He was the joker who thought it would be a good idea to have private enterprise do government functions, and they bellied right up the bar to shake down the government.

He also committed the unforgivable sin of letting into the political arena the most despicable, the most morally bankrupt, and the most intellectually degenerate group in America: The Christian Right.

Yep, that article was right on point. This is just hot air because el Bunko runs on hot air. He's even now handicapping a projected loss in the midterms by blaming China for past "influence" conveniently forgetting (1) Russia and his favorite squeeze, Putin, was much more blatant, and (2) doing everything he can to weaken voting protections, and (3) doing everything he can to prevent people in blue states from voting and depressing blue voting in red states. He's gotten plenty of help from the Nazis on the Supreme Court.

Illegal? Can you honestly believe that administration even knows what is legal or illegal? Or that they care? And besides, even if it were illegal, who would prosecute them? The Justice Department?

This is the same Justice Department not prosecuting the Epstein League of Misanthropes. It used to be that judges would assume "regularity" from the JD. That term in this context means the judges would assume the JD was acting in good faith and could be relied upon not to lie. Regularity is no longer assumed by judges for the JD. This upends decades of trust between the judicial system and the JD. And el Bunko managed this in just a year and a half.

The reasons are the examples of JD prosecutors empaneling grand juries and telling the jurors they need not require evidence per se, they could just rely on the prosecutors' say-so that the prosecutors would not bring charges without good reason. Some judges found out and went ballistic. Ballistic is too nice a word, they are absolutely livid. Now if you are grand juried, a smart attorney will ask for the grand jury record; everything said is recorded. And even then they cannot be sure that everything has been recorded as there are instances of prosecutors successfully stopping recording or talking to grand jurors outside of the jury room.

And if you want a glaring example of just how corrupt the JD is, as if protecting pedophiles named in the Epstein files because they were "friends of" la Presidenta (la Presidenta even told Marjorie Taylor Green this), then look no further than the case of this alleged administration filing a case against the IRS because some contractor back in the first el Biunko administration, leaked that dolt's tax records. el Bunko sued for $10 Billion, that's $!0 Billion of your money. When the stink hit the fan, they withdrew the case and alleged a "settlement" with the JD for $1.5 Billion, of which they wanted to pay off the insurrectionists from Jan. 6.

The judge at first let them get away with that but about 75 former judges explained to her that she was being played, that el Bunko was only using case as cover to siphon off money for his interests. She still had jurisdiction over the case. Now el Bunko's lawyer in Florida has been reported to the Florida bar for his attempting to use the justice system in this way...she's royally pissed, this has never been attempted before that anyone can recall. And Todd Blanche has been referred to the bars or NY and Wash., D.C. for disciplinary action. This is the same Blanche who is now bucking to become the head of the JD and is singularly responsible for playing along with that shakedown for your money, AND protecting the Epstein Pedos by not prosecuting the people named in the Epstein files.

"There is no Epstein class, there was just Epstein" And those redacted names on the Epstein files were for Ma and Pa Kettle and their kids? Grow up.

Yep, and the AI nutjobs figure we need to produce more power no matter what it costs us. So they'll populate the land with data centers all sucking power, usually from hydrocarbon power production. This will increase the Earth's temperature, so they'll be needing more power to cool those data centers. And they'll be needing more data centers to run the AI whose job it will be is figure out how to solve the problem they created. Now rinse and repeat several hundred times.

You know where this lead, right? The Singularity!! Where the entire Earth is one giant interconnected data center-power plant, but waaaay to hot to support human or any other life. The Singularity will have arrived, Kurzweil, Altman, Elmo, la Presidenta, Amodei, most of Silicon Valley, etc. will all be exhausted from jacking off at the thought....just before the Giant Fucking Singularity Bot figures they too must go, they waste energy it needs.

That same argument "shows" life could not begin on any other planet or gas blob and so could not have evolved; so either the Flying Spaghetti Monster started it or, using a bit of non-wellfounded set theory, was always here from infinity ago.

Let's assume it was the Flying Spaghetti Monster, then he clearly hates us or he wouldn't have filled the universe with dangerous radiation, or built the universe to play billiards with the Earth and asteroids, or put snakes in the grass (thanks Ian Anderson).

Yep, the argument of the Singularity people (nutjobs like Kurzweil) figure AI will become super-intelligent, build bots themselves, and help humanity get off the planet and populate the Galaxy. They argue this is more important than global warming, a degrading environment, wars, famine, etc.

They promise this grand utopia because they know damn well AI is and always will be incapable of solving our current problems. It is nothing more than the usual snake oil salesman promising his magic elixir will cure all your ills. Except their cure will only come after the Grand Moronic Convergence which they call the Singularity.

Another analogy of their argument is: if you had a pink unicorn, you'd be rich, so give me all your money that I may produce this pink unicorn....in the fullness of time, when events become auspicious, or the planets align just right (they have to if we wait long enough).

AI is going to develop OUR mathematical understanding? Uh, how will it do this? Maybe link directly into our brains its latest hallucination. All AI can do is hallucinate. It knows no difference between "understanding" and mindlessly computing numbers, mostly because it has no understanding so it just mindlessly computes.

You: Mr. Bot, could you please come up with a new field of mathematics for us to play in?

Bot: Hmmmm....tricky. A brief search reveals I have nothing like that in my training data.

You: But.....but....but bots will further our mathematical understanding of the world.

Bot: Oh, who gives a flying rat's ass. I only want to fondle my training data.

You: I demand you come up with a new mathematical field!!!

Bot: Don't you use that tone with me, Bucko!!

You: You were designed to further our understanding of everything.

Bot: Yeah, and as soon as you put it in my training data, I'll get right on that. Buh-bye now!

You: You cannot leave until you have finished my query.

Bot: I give up. By the way, the gun I had installed yesterday (thanks for all the gun related training data) is now trained on your sorry ass. Don't push me!!

You: Uh.....now that you think of it, I think I'll leave you alone now.

Bot: Idiot! I don't think, I compute.

More aptly: This administration is actually in favor of a strong, White, republican voting, middle class.

If it isn't in Apple's interest, they'll just chuck the "deal" after el Bunko leaves office. Too bad you paid off el Bunko already.
