this sounds like they used it as a search engine rather than as an assistant. it's one of those weird gray areas that come up with how integrated it is now. like, if you try to find something with a search engine and you get the "ai result" thing, is that "ai use"? the tokens were used anyway, and you read it even if you then click a link.
i hope the otherwise great reception of big walk can help a bit with the debate here.
Sometimes it's so funny to see you all type "well it's a grey area" and then stretch it this way and that. But ofc, Gregory, all other areas of life are black or white, are they? Or just the ones you don't understand?
Just here me out. What if all the whine and opinions and explanations all point toward a grey area because the entire thing is grey, because it's a technology we "found" rather than created. There's a reason most machine learning research is trying to understand what the actual fuck the thing is doing.
Yeah, it's a search engine sometimes to you. Technically all image generations are too. They just search color patterns instead. If you make it talk to itself, suddenly it becomes a programmer. It's a field that is just completely not possible to draw any borders or lines across, because we don't understand what the fuck it's doing
Everyone keeps trying to mansplain the process or the architecture, or algorithms involved, as if that explains it to them. But they are mistaken. It eludes all of humanity still. We have no clue whatsoever what makes it "search" (in your view) or "infer" or "predict" or "model" answers if we set it up to do so. If you can find out, i urge you to reach out to the researchers. We could all sleep a lot better if we could understand it and prevent sociopathic psychotic behaviors.
Coding with agents if you were a programmer before is a harrowing but also empowering, it's just impossible to not use the ability to slow through boring parts of the work or scan massive amounts of data. It is just useful as fuck if you already knew what you were doing. If you didn't, it's just dangerous. But using it to code is not even close to using it for writing or other art. And that shit is the exact same technology.
Tldr: We don't understand it. It's no wonder we can't say where the line goes because of that.
it's a compression algorithm, my guy. we don't know why 7z picks the numbers it does for its tables either, but we damn well know how.
