  2. 1 - If we had #QuantumComputing on any real scale, "#AI" (really, #LLMs and similar tech) wouldn't be a problem. But we don't. To use a loose analogy, we're trying to run #Windows 3.1 on 1930s vacuum tubes. The #environmental cost is untenable, and there is -no way- to adjust for it. Our #hardware is simply not advanced enough to run this kind of software without burning through an enormous amount of #energy, and energy usage always has an environmental impact.

    2 - People don't understand what it is, by and large. These are not "machines that think." All the recent developments in "AI" amount to industrial-scale #pattern recognition with very convincing user interfaces. It should never be trusted, because it hasn't escaped #GIGO -- garbage in, garbage out. #Pattern matching is cool, but it's not #selfawareness. It is a markedly different approach than AI (really, machine learning) took in the past.

  4. How Accurate Are Google’s A.I. Overviews?

    The company’s A.I.-generated answers look authoritative, but they draw on an array of sources, from trustworthy sites to #Facebook posts.

    > it depends on the #training data. You give it worthless data, you get worthless answers.

  6. Maybe just me, but I CANNOT with badly-written questions. #GIGO dammit; I answer what's *asked*, and when the question is vague summary-slush, I just rageflip and stomp away because it sounds like you only want someone to lie up a pleasant-sounding vagueslush answer and I refuse to do that more than job interviews already require.

    The current rage is at my therapist, who probably copied these out of a book but they're AWFUL. I'm just wasting time screaming "what does that MEEEEAN" >,<

  7. On "AI"...

    I finally had an opportunity to personally evaluate the output of an #LLM that was asked to do a technical evaluation / summary of the state of an industry. A friend asked a modern model about a particular #technical field and asked it to summarize various aspects of it. It happened to involve supercomputing, which I have some knowledge of, and he asked me to look at the answer it gave.

    It was a detailed writeup, a little over 1300 words. It had the structure of the kind of document he'd asked it to create, with appropriate sections, headers, with the information divided up sensibly, etc. It very much sounded like the type of thing you would expect a computer science #expert to respond with if asked the same question.

    But some of the specific points in the answers were obviously wrong to me. Some I suspected were wrong. Some I didn't know. So I checked. I didn't check every fact and figure, but a decent number of them - and every single one I checked was flat-out wrong. It gave specific numbers or attributes for many aspects of the state of the #tech, and they were all wrong. Sometimes badly #wrong, and some stupendously wrong.

    There were only a couple of things in the text that were obviously inconsistent, so unless you happened to already know something about the subject, there was almost no hint of how incorrectly it stated the facts. And of course it sounded supremely confident.
