  • Fucking this!

    I’m getting a CS degree now and even though the math still eludes me quite a bit, just understanding that LLMs are essentially a bunch of Linear Algebra and Matrix Multiplication calculations to weight a series of vector scored words to approximate desired output demystifies the whole thing and makes me very angry that this is what is being sold as the next big thing.

    It’s not. It’s an impressive milestone in Reinforcement Learning achieved in 2017. The use cases and prevalence of “AI” has less to do with it being an impressive piece of tech, and more a reflection of the failures of humans, specifically humans in the tech sector.
