The original “One” phone was even supposed to run cyanogemod out of the box at one point.

Also google when scammers want to advertise, vs when a real, one-person-business is trying to get off the ground.

ASK ME HOW I KNOW

Yes. But you don’t have to switch.

People say “start” with simpler distros because if you go past just using it as-is, and grow to understand linux closer to the system level, you’ll likely eventually end up preferring something more complex.

There’s little point to starting at the deep end, like arch, since you don’t know whether you’ll end up staying in the shallows yet. Either way, it’s the start. It can also be the end, but that is unknowable.

Ah. So this is the competitive ranked sex I’ve been hearing about?

Nah.

Just do what Valve did with Wine.

Officially fork and contribute to Heroic.

She writes her erotic stories on her phone?

Like you said, it might be impossible to avoid ascribing things like intentionality to it

That’s not what I meant. When you say “it makes stuff up” you are describing how the model statistically predicts the expected output.

You know that. I know that.

That’s the asterisk. The more in-depth explanation a lot of people won’t bother getting far enough to learn about. Someone who doesn’t read that far into it, can read that same phrase and assume that we’re discussing what type of personality LLMs exhibit, that they are “liars”. But they’d be wrong. Neither of us is attributing intention to it or discussing what kind of “person” it is, in reality we’re referring to the fact that it’s “just” a really complex probability engine that can’t “know” anything.

No matter what word we use, if it is pre-existing, it will come with pre-existing meanings that are kinda right, but also not quite, requiring that everyone involved in a discussion know things that won’t be explained every time a term or phrase is used.

The language isn’t “inaccurate” between you and me because you and I know the technical definition, and therefore what aspect of LLMs is being discussed.

Terminology that is “accurate” without this context does not and cannot exist, short of coming up with completely new words.

Yes.

Who are you trying to convince?

What AI is doing is making things up.

This language also credits LLMs with an implied ability to think they don’t have.

My point is we literally can’t describe their behaviour without using language that makes it seems like they do more than they do.

So we’re just going to have to accept that discussing it will have to come with a bunch of asterisks a lot of people are going to ignore. And which many will actively try to hide in an effort to hype up the possibility that this tech is a stepping stone to AGI.

Obviusly.

And like hallucinations, it’s undesired behavior that proponents off LLMs will need to “fix” (a practical impossibility as far as I’m concerned, like unbaking a cake).

But how would you use words to explain the phenomenon?

“LLMs hallucinate and lie” is probably the shortest description that most people will be able to grasp.

Yup. The way the article titled itself isn’t helping.

Seems like it’s a technical term, a bit like “hallucination”.

It refers to when an LLM will in some way try to deceive or manipulate the user interacting with it.

There’s hallucination, when a model “genuinely” claims something untrue is true.

This is about how a model might lie, even though the “chain of thought” shows it “knows” better.

It’s just yet another reason the output of LLMs are suspect and unreliable.

Same but among arch users it’s “your config” and “my config”.

Really common, actually. RAM doesn’t really wear out, so if you do get hit with some faulty DIMMS, look into RMAs.

If this actually worked, the rich wouldn’t be trying to sell AI to the poor. They’d keep it to themselves.

Did you already find this?

Who mentioned piracy?

I get the files from bandcamp and quobuz. Unlike movies, you can still legally buy music, and get actual files.

Yep.

Once an encrypted storage volume is mounted and in use, you just transfer stuff into and out of it like normal.

There’s nothing unusual about the files themselves.

Hell yes.

It’s fucking open source, this is no different from games with intrusive anti-cheat refusing to run on Linux, except in this case it’s not even a different OS.

It’s monopolistic and anti-user.
