It can be turned off so it's up to the person you're messaging. Once you send something the person at the other end is in control of what happens to it.

No it's not. It's pedantic and arguing semantics. It is essentially useless and a waste of everyone's time.

It applies a statistical model and returns an analysis.

I've never heard anyone argue when you say they used a computer to analyse it.

It's just the same AI bad bullshit and it's tiring in every single thread about them.

Raw milk cheese has exactly the same health risks unfortunately. Which is a shame because it's supposed to make better cheese.

I literally quoted the word for that exact reason. It just gets really tiring when you talk about AIs and someone always has to make this point. We all know they don't think or understand in the same way we do. No one gains anything by it being pointed out constantly.

I mean they literally do analyze text. They're great at it. Give it some text and it will analyze it really well. I do it with code at work all the time.

Because they are two completely different tasks. Asking them to recall information from their training is a very bad use. Asking them to analyze information passed into them is what they are great at.

Give it a sample of code and it will very accurately analyse and explain it. Ask it to generate code and the results are wildly varied in accuracy.

I'm not assuming anything you can literally go and use one right now and see.

That's fucking disgusting. Ground up murdered plants and chicken ovulation. I hate you.

One of LLMs main strengths over traditional text analysis tools is the ability to "understand" context.

They are bad at generating factual responses. They are amazing at analysing text.

They can still revoke its use anytime they want. Which is the main issue right?

I mean it's not hard so much as very dated and a bit shit.

I could use raw pointers in c# if I wanted to. But it's just not a great way to do things.

C will likely have a place where low languages are required for a long time. But everywhere else there's little reason to choose over more modern languages.

No it's a neural network. They may be over-hyped but they are 100% an AI.

Just installed this and made my cursor bigger. Single best customisation I've ever made on windows!

August 31, 1955 The term “artificial intelligence” is coined in a proposal for a “2 month, 10 man study of artificial intelligence” submitted by John McCarthy (Dartmouth College), Marvin Minsky (Harvard University), Nathaniel Rochester (IBM), and Claude Shannon (Bell Telephone Laboratories)

This is just literally not true.

Point 3 is what LLMs are.

You are thinking of general artificial intelligence from sci-fi

An attempt will be made to find how to make machines use language, form abstractions and concepts, solve kinds of problems now reserved for humans,

This is what artificial intelligence actually means. Solving problems that traditionally require intelligence

Path finding algorithms in games are AI. And have always been referred to as such. We studied them my AI module at uni.
