    #StochasticParrot [2]: make vivid
    "difference between how we use language and what's coming out of what I now like to call #SyntheticTextExtrudingMachines.

    So once that paper was out in the world [...] I was frequently asked «How do I know that you're not just a stocastic parrot?»

    And I after being asked this question a couple times decided that I'm not going to be in conversation with people who won't posit my humanity as a basic axiom of the discussion.

    This is a #dehumanizing question"

    Large Language Mistake

    Current AI models are not on the path to artificial general intelligence

    Update: One week after The Verge published my essay, it was cited in a federal district court decision to support the proposition that LLMs do not reason the way that humans do.

  3. I guess you really need to be a cryptographer-only to be so consumed by your cool new #cryptography engineering thing that you can say a sentence like this and not blink:

    "It’s been really interesting and encouraging and amazing to hear stories from people who have used #Confer [Moxie's new private #AI #chatbot] and had life-changing conversations."

  4. 🤯 Ah, the end of 2025, where #AI finally leaves its "stochastic parrot" phase behind and becomes a "conscious parakeet" 🙄. This article bravely rehashes the obvious, acting like Chain of Thought is the invention of the century. Just another day in #AI land, where we learn that 2 + 2 = 4... again. 🤦‍♂️

  5. A Bojangles near me replaced their drive thru teller position with an AI. I do not relish the thought of using IVR to order from or interrogate the already-poor placard menus.

    As you can imagine, my breakfast was quoted at $12 and then the wrong order was presented at the window for $16.

    I just want biscuits, man. I don’t want to help you troubleshoot your Bo-tastic parrot.

  7. Greatly enjoying my #Mastodon timeline with its mix of followed hashtags and persons!

    Nothing pushed out by a platform promoting its own narrow #SelfInterest. 😀

    Most days I discover someone or something else to follow, adding #depth and/or #diversity to the feed.

    Some days I improve the ongoing #Quality by muting those that emit #Hate, #NameCalling, #Stupidity, #Victimhood, or blatant #SelfPromotion.

    It's a process almost opposite that of a #StochasticParrot #LLM like #ChatGPT.
