@Huntn00@mastodon.world When Microsoft tried to shove copilot onto my desktop, it told me it was there to help with "all my computer problems." I asked it, in my one and only interface ever with a LLM, "can you make 3D models from verbal prompts?" and the answer was, of course, no it could not. Because LLMs can't actually DO ANYTHING. The only thing it can do is regurgitate things it already knows - whatever WE TOLD IT. It's not even solving math problems like they claim.

@Huntn00@mastodon.world The things AI is actually good at is translation and transcription. And you're not going to end the world with a mad translation engine. Machine learning is a misnomer. It's not learning. It's parsing datasets under a specific set of instructions. Again, zero actual agency. @SteveThompson@mastodon.social
