    They never know about something though. They are just text randomisers trained to generate plausible looking text

      What does that have to do with what I wrote?

        The problem isn’t that the model doesn’t know when it doesn’t know. The models never know. They’re text predictors. Sometimes the predictive text happens to be right, but the text predictor doesn’t know.

          So, let me get this straight. It’s your purpose in life, to find anytime anyone mentions the word know in any form of context to butt into the conversation with no helpful information or context to the message at hand and point out that AI isn’t alive (which is obvious to everyone) and say it’s just a text predictor (which is misleading at best)? Can someone help me crowdsource this poor soul a hobby?

              Every time I try to talk about something, somebody who has very little knowledge about the subject but very strong feelings about it, butts into pedant a point.

              It gets kind of tiring, I guess.

              How you doin?
