Why are we relying on language models to answer questions. These things don’t really “know” anything right?

Ahhh to be young and full of cringe. That lore did give us bacon reader, back in its day one of THE apps to use before reddit exploded in 3rd party apps.

Incorrect. It’s a common misconception that porn was the leading factor that doomed Beta to lose the format wars. In reality, Sony’s strict licensing of the beta technology, short recording times and higher cost doomed the system. A large part of the betamax development history is trying to lower its superior quality just to have the runtimes a standard vhs tape would have.

Wouldn’t Pr(ul)etty be the right way to do that? Even tho yours looks better aesthetically.

That would be right if they understood/knew what they were talking about. It’s more akin to really advanced autocorrect that sounds/reads like something the ai was trained on. So it sounds correct but really has 0 basis on truth other than “the model predicts a human would say X next”. Truth is rarely the goal of any of these machine learning language models afaik.

I love your confidence but Apollo won the app wars 💅💅

Now we gotta fight about which fediverse app is gonna win, right?

Please help how do I delete a post i’m on WefWef 😭😭

I don’t know how 😭.

Wefwef doesn’t have a delete option in the 3 dot menu please 😭😭

CROP

Thank god someone who understands. I hated how towards the end reddit was so full of misinformation and people talking out of their ass with confidence. Hope Lemmy can steer away from those tendencies. It’s okay if we don’t have the answer sometimes.
