Computer... enhance!
By the way, when you refuse to band together, organize, and dispose of these people, they entrench themselves further in power. Everyone ignored Kari Lake as a harmless kook and she just destroyed Voice of America. That loudmouthed MAGA asshole in your neighborhood is going to commit a murder.
i'll allow it so long as grok acknowledges that musk was made rich from inherited wealth that was created using an apartheid emerald mine.
He’s done with Tesla, isn’t he?
I think most AI corp tech bros do want to control information, they just aren't high enough on Ket to say it out loud.
Faek news!
What a dickbag. I'll never forgive him for bastardizing one of my favorite works of fiction (Stranger in a Strange Land)
I've seen what happens when image generating AI trains on AI art and I can't wait to see the same thing for "knowledge"
I'm interested to see how this turns out. My prediction is that the AI trained from the results will be insane, in the unable-to-reason-effectively sense, because we don't yet have AIs capable of rewriting all that knowledge and keeping it consistent. Each little bit of it considered in isolation will fit the criteria that Musk provides, but taken as a whole it'll be a giant mess of contradictions.
Sure, the existing corpus of knowledge doesn't all say the same thing either, but the contradictions in it can be identified with deeper consistent patterns. An AI trained off of Reddit will learn drastically different outlooks and information from /r/conservative comments than it would from /r/news comments, but the fact that those are two identifiable communities means that it'd see a higher order consistency to this. If anything that'll help it understand that there are different views in the world.
in the unable-to-reason-effectively sense
That's all LLMs by definition.
They're probabilistic text generators, not AI. They're fundamentally incapable of reasoning in any way, shape or form.
They just take a text and produce the most probable word to follow it according to their training model, that's all.
What Musk's plan (using an LLM to regurgitate as much of its model as it can, expunging all references to Musk being a pedophile and whatnot from the resulting garbage, adding some racism and disinformation for good measure, and training a new model exclusively on that slop) will produce is a significantly more limited and prone to hallucinations model that occasionally spews racism and disinformation.
Solve physics and kill god
You want to have a non-final product write the training for the next level of bot? Sure, makes sense if you're stupid. Why did all these companies waste time stealing when they could just have one bot make data for the next bot to train on? Infinite data!
I believe it won't work.
They would have to change so much info that won't make a coherent whole. So many alternative facts that clash with so many other aspects of life. So asking about any of it would cause errors because of the many conflicts.
Sure it might work for a bit, but it would quickly degrade and will be so much slower than other models since it needs to error correct constantly.
An other thing is that their training data will also be very limited, and they would have to check every single other one thoroughly for "false info". Increasing their manual labour.
Grok will round up physics constants and pi as well... nothing will work but Musk will say that humanity is dumb
I see Mr. Musk has started using intracerebrally.
