  • It seems like a quite pointless discussion since you both seem to have already decided your minds.

    They don’t accept your sources? Why? If they really are valid and they just cherry-pick sources, then there is no way of convincing them.

    On the other hand, you also just seem to dismiss their counterarguments without much thought. If they can give a counterargument for your every argument, then maybe your arguments actually aren’t good?




  • there is no way to do the equivalent of banning armor piercing rounds with an LLM or making sure a gun is detectable by metal detectors - because as I said it is non-deterministic. You can’t inject programmatic controls.

    Of course you can. Why would you not, just because it is non-deterministic? Non-determinism does not mean complete randomness and lack of control, that is a common misconception.

    Again, obviously you can’t teach an LLM about morals, but you can reduce the likelyhood of producing immoral content in many ways. Of course it won’t be perfect, and of course it may limit the usefulness in some cases, but that is the case also today in many situations that don’t involve AI, e.g. some people complain they “can not talk about certain things without getting cancelled by overly eager SJWs”. Society already acts as a morality filter. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Free-speech maximslists exist, but are a minority.










  • Why should I provide more sources when you yourself haven’t provided any?

    Firstly, if you go back to the beginning of this thread I exactly provide a source that contradicts the original article. So clearly I have provided sources.

    Secondly, to paraphrase my mother, “Just because the person you are discussing with is being unproductive, does not mean you have to be”. I am trying to understand you, so of course I will try to be productive about it and reach my goal, instead of just being difficult because you are.


  • You’ve tried explaining, but without providing any sources at all, except for “look it up yourself”.

    I’m truly not sure why you think I have memorized some talking points? Is it maybe because I don’t want to move on to the next point until after we have properly dealt with the previous one, including e.g. figuring out what sources your claims sre based on (except just “source: The Internet” which is not even acceptible in grade school).

    You provide information, but absolutely refuse to tell what source that information is based on.

    Could you please provide sn example of where I have moved goal posts?
