    This is your daily reminder that LLMs don’t “know” anything. They are a really complicated way of averaging out all the data on the internet. All this means is that the internet, on average, believes the word Trump is used in relation to pedophiles, and Grok was able to match an ensemble of pixels in an image to the word Trump.

        Excuse me, but everyone who thought Machine Learning isn’t about to rearrange all of humanity simply didn’t get the memo. /s

        Well, nope. You should talk to some of my colleagues, most of them IT engineers (and a couple of C-suite guys). That have swallowed the marketdroid speech about LLMs and there is no way to convince them those are just glorified linear regressors able to predict a stream of tokens without any resemblance or ‘knowledge’ about it.
