What is a good eli5 analogy for GenAI not "knowing" what they say?

I have many conversations with people about Large Language Models like ChatGPT and Copilot. The idea that “it makes convincing sentences, but it doesn’t know what it’s talking about” is a difficult concept to convey or wrap your head around. Because the sentences are so convincing....

Turun,

NO understanding. Just words that happened to describe all of it.

If being able to describe it does not mean understanding, then what is understanding?

Turun,

I don’t understand why anyone would be against vaccines, with one exception: parents who have a kid that actually suffered from one of the super rare side effects. For example I have seen a documentary about pro/contra vaccine, where one person featured was a child who had gotten polio as a result of the polio vaccine.

Turun,

Obviously from Isengard in the west and Mordor in the east.

(You’ve been wooooshed, the comment above is an approximate quote from the lort of the rings, when theoden is hesitant to call his men to arms)

Lemmy/feddit ist irgendwie richtig krass Kontra und negativ eingestellt. Beispiele:

  • der top Kommentar hier unterm post behauptet, dass “Die FDP möchte [Siemens] am liebsten den Boden unter den Füßen wegreißen, weil sie nicht mit Öl und Gas arbeiten.” Quelle Fehlanzeige, selbstverständlich.
  • dein “wat”. Mehr Recherche, weniger reaktionäre Kommentare bitte.
  • Cannabis “restriktives” Gesetz. Leute, wir haben legales Cannabis, guckt euch Mal me Karte an - weniger maulen und mehr feiern.
  • erneuerbare Energien in Bayern. Über die Windkraft wird sich immer schön aufgeregt. Einmal bashen, am besten noch alle Einwohner des Bundeslandes dafür verantwortlich machen und schon kann man sich für einen Tag besser fühlen. Aber schon Mal die installierte Solarleistung angeschaut?

Objektiv betrachtet ist Deutschland eines des besten Länder weltweit was erneuerbare Energien angeht. Klar ein paar Länder toppen uns, Norwegen (gefühlt Potential für mehr Wasserkraftwerke als Einwohner) und Dänemark (jedes Windrad was du da baust ist höher als deren höchster Berg) zum Beispiel. Aber für unsere historische Abhängigkeit von fossilen Energieträgern, und den natürlichen Gegebenheiten (Berge und nur mittelmäßig Sonne) sind wir krass gut dabei.

Turun,

It depends on which part of the atmosphere reacts. Pink/purple/red is also possible.

Turun,

Krass, wie weit südlich ging das? Ich sehe aktuell nix, aber vielleicht ist’s auch einfach schon vorbei.

Turun,

“I work with models”

Others: a beautiful woman or man

Me: also a beautiful woman or man, but with seven fingers on one hand and 3 three on the other

Turun,

We have the internet man, just bug another human and wait a few days to hear back from them.

Like I know that’s what you are “supposed” to do. But public money public knowledge, I refuse to accept that this is somehow an acceptable state of things.

Turun,

What force did he have if those are the other forces?

Turun,

I would assume any country that is part of Schengen can ban people from visiting the Schengen area. It’s their border after all.

Turun,

Forsén stated in the 2019 documentary film Losing Lena, "I retired from modeling a long time ago. It’s time I retired from tech, too… Let’s commit to losing me.

From Wikipedia

She was a paid model, so I don’t consider the usage unethical based on that. But I like this comment from a journal:

In today’s age of high-resolution digital image technology, it seems difficult to argue that a 512 × 512 image produced with a 1970s-era analog scanner is the best we have to offer as an image quality test standard".

Lmao, they do have a point though!

Turun,

The children’s book “Drachenreiter” is written often from the perspective of the protagonist Dragon. Not sure if there is an English translation though.

de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drachenreiter

Turun,

Whoops, didn’t even read what I linked (after making sure it’s what the book I meant) XD

Turun,

An impostor, lol

It’s where the term for the syndrome comes from.

Turun,

Wenn erst Mal richtiges Gras wächst verdrängt das zum großen Teil den Löwenzahn.

This is exactly the source of the problem.
If all leftist cops quit, the police will obviously have a right bias. You should encourage people who agree with your ideology to join institutions that have power.

Same with the military. Why is there a disproportionate number of nut jobs in the military? Well, part of the reason is certainly because leftist social circles straight up bully anyone in their own ranks who would consider joining. edit: this applies e.g. In Germany much more than in the US. I crossed it out to avoid getting criticized by the us defaultism crowd.

Turun,

Yes, of course. Do you think right wing cops will treat leftist protesters fairly? Who is supposed to prosecute 6th Jan actors? People who are sympathetic towards their actions? Surely not.

If you want leftist protests to be treated fairly you need cops who agree with the protesters.

Turun,

I meant that more general than the US military. It certainly applies in Germany for example, which is much less involved in wars around the world.

But even if you want to restrict your view: Yes, even the US military complex could do with some left leaning people in positions of power. Who is advising the White House on where to send its military? Some random communist literature student or the military (with heavy commentary from oil and gas industry leaders?

Turun,

Sure, but Norway is not in the EU ;)

Turun, (edited )

Nothing is out there! All there is is a lake and birds and fish. … And a wooden walkway. … And a big ass cement block. But there’s nothing else there. It’s a complete void. The environment is perfectly safe!

Turun,

They will probably never join. Iirc there was a referendum once and they are quite happy with their arrangement.

Norway is part of Schengen and the European economic area.

Turun,

Oh, I may actually have confused that. Thanks for pointing it out.

Turun,

Officials say the young orca has a proven track record of successful hunting. She has been observed eating herring and birds while trapped in the lagoon.

Probably. Orcas are pack animals, but I think she’ll manage.

Turun,

You’d think so, but the title has a space there!
