1·2 months agoOk, that’s easy. If I make an LRM model of your dead grandma, is that your grandma? Why not? What’s different?
Your bug fixing teams are begging for automation. That tells me you have an unsustainable setup. You are providing a bug fix suggestion tool, I don’t see how that fixes your problem. Seems like you need better coding practices and possibly more people.
A couple of things:
- we are talking about chat bots talking to people in this post, and how you can steer the simulated conversation towards whatever you want
- it did not debug anything, a human debugged something and wrote about it. Then that human input and a ton of others were mapped into a huge probability map, and some computer simulated what people talking about this would most likely say. Is it useful? Sure, maybe. Why didn’t you debug it yourself?
I will 100% admit to not reading papers and keeping up to date. I went ahead and spent about 30m looking up various explanations and summaries of LRMs. Ok, so you take an LLM and tell it to break the problem down first. It’s still not reasoning. It’s running a simulation of a natural language conversation, and giving you the center of mass of the statistical distribution for the intermediate steps. Does this kinda sorta replicate the sounds a human makes? Absolutely. But it’s irresponsible and unethical to make any claims that this is a human like entity you can chat with, or that it is doing any reasoning.
When I get some time I’ll check this paper out: https://ml-site.cdn-apple.com/papers/the-illusion-of-thinking.pdf
No, just because they say they want it to reason, does not mean it does
This is the problem with things that don’t reason. You’re just giving it hints towards the simulation you want, and then it ultimately simulates the conversation you are building towards.

But the thing about these chatbots (as opposed to search engine or library) is that the responses will be in natural language. It won’t just spit out a list of instructions, it will assemble a natural language response that affirms your actions or choices, and sometimes include words that sound empathetic.
I would imagine some of the generated replies would say something to the effect of:
“It’s terribly sad that you’ve committed to ending your own life, but given the circumstances, it’s an understandable course of action. Here are some of the least painful ways to die:…”
Are people looking for something to blame besides themselves? Absolutely. But I think the insidious thing here is that AI companies are absolutely trying to make chatbots a replacement for human connection.

36·3 months agoSeems like a much more lucrative idea to sell it to the highest bidder then

I’m just happy that I saw some news on it instead of nothing
