On: Don't believe the hype: AGI is far from inevitable

[Atmael]

the point is that agi may already exist and work with you and your environment

you just won't notice the existence of agi

there will be no press coverage of agi

the technology will just be exploited by those who have the technology

On: Ask HN: Why is ChatGPT so bad at electronics?

[Atmael]

because chat gpt is a linguistic model

linguistic models are based on images of objects and phenomena, not on the physical properties of those objects and phenomena

there's practical knowledge and there's theoretical knowledge

practical knowledge can be used as technology but theoretical knowledge cannot

by and large, chat gpt is a generator of 'idle chatter' that people are used to in their communication and often in their thinking
