Matt shání české rodilé mluvčí ke kontrole své nové hry o ukrytých kočičkách. Dobrovolníci?

as a girl with a PhD in natural language processing and machine learning it's actually offensive to me when you say "we don't know how LLMs work so they might be conscious"
I didn't spend 10 years in mines of academia to be told ignorance is morally equal knowledge.
We know exactly how LLMs work.

„Loutka má v sobě magii. Když ožije v rukou loutkoherce, nedívá se dítě na toho, kdo ji vodí, ale sleduje jen ji, komunikuje s ní a začne si hrát. Během hry pak často verbalizuje svoje pocity, uvolní se,“ přibližuje principálka.
