Yknow, at the time I figured this guy, with his background and experience, would be able to distinguish normal from abnormal LLM behavior.
But with the way many people treat GPT3.5/GPT4, I think I've changed my mind. People can know exactly what it is (i.e. a computer program) and still be fooled by its responses.
If you ever wonder if the machine is sentient, ask it to write code for something somewhat obscure.
I'm trying to run a Docker container in NixOS. NixOS is a Linux distro known for being super resilient (I break stuff a lot because I don't know what in doing), and while it's not some no-name distro, it's also not that popular. GPT 4 Turbo has given me wrong answer after wrong answer and it's infuriating. Bard too.
If this thing was sentient, it'd be a lot better at this stuff. Or at least be able to say, "I don't know, but I can help you figure it out".
At this point I'm probably not sentient either
I'm more talking about hallucinations. There's a difference between "I'm not sure", "I think it's this but I'm confidently wrong", and "I'm making up bullshit answers left and right".
