Practical programming itself does not require this kind of math. The stuff you're trying to make a program do might; but even then I don't think you'll have difficulty in that context. The stuff you're learning now will have had time to "settle", and you'll be working towards a concrete goal, which makes it easier in my experience.
Another thing is that just because you're struggling right now doesn't mean you'll be struggling forever. Math didn't really click for me until I took calculus. I had a math professor who it didn't click for until their junior year of college as a math major.
So don't sweat it. But it's always a good idea to have another career idea or two in your back pocket just in case. There are lots of reasons you might not want to be a programmer as a career. You might hate it. You might love it enough that you want to be able to do it freely instead of at the behest of others for money.
These kinds of anxieties are normal for someone your age (assuming you're not nontraditional student). But one day you'll look behind you in all these worries will seem unjustified. Everything will almost certainly turn out fine.
As a USian, I'm more than happy to have europe take care of their own security, go right ahead 👍
ba dum chhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
OP clearly expects LLMs to exhibit mind-like behaviors. Lying absolutely implies agency, but even if you don't agree, OP is confused that
It did not simply analyze the best type of graphics card for the situation
The whole point of the post is that OP is upset that LLMs are generating falsehoods and parroting input back into its output. No one with a basic understanding of LLMs would be surprised by this. If someone said their phone's autocorrect was "lying", you'd be correct in assuming they didn't understand the basics of what autocorrect is, and would be completely justified in pointing out that that's nonsense.
I know, but it's a ridiculous term. It's so bad it must have been invented or chosen to mislead and make people think it has a mind, which seems to have been successful, as evidenced by the OP
ChatGPT does not "hallucinate" or "lie". It does not perceive, so it can't hallucinate. It has no intent, so it can't lie. It generates text without any regard to whether said text is true or false.
Everything the Nazis did in the Third Reich was legal. People who resisted them were breaking the law. Maybe we should evaluate things by their impact (pollution/invasion of privacy) rather than their legality.
Musk overpaid a ton for twitter because he made a stupid joke, tried to back out, and got forced to follow through in the courts. It is of course possible that these were Machiavellian machinations with benefits a rube like me could not possibly understand. Or, and hear me out here, he is just a buffoon who fell ass backwards into something that ended up working for him.
Either way, he is a serious danger. But the thing that makes him really dangerous is his wealth, a thing he did little to nothing to deserve.
100%. I'll just point out that the Democratic party leadership is very wealthy and their class interests align with someone like Musk. Maybe one reason we're losing is because the people we choose to fight don't want to win.
