#Input/Output
Een LLM begrijpt niets. Het snapt niet waarom je iets vraagt. Het snapt niet als het een fout maakt, waarom het een fout maakt. Het begrijpt geen intenties. Geen gevolgen. Het is slechts input <> output. Ik train met deze modellen ook gitaarversterkers. Intelligentie 0.

Patronen herkennen is geen intelligentie als de machine die het doet geen enkel besef heeft waarom dat patroon herkent moet worden behalve opzoeken welk patroon erbij hoort. Het is puur het koppelen van input aan output zonder besef. Als een mens dat iets doet zonder door te hebben dat ie iets doet.

Een LLM/Neural Network kent geen intelligentie. Het is Machine Learning. Input en output zijn gemeten via de blackbox. Dit systeem bestaat al decennia lang en is men AI gaan noemen om centjes mee te verdienen. Pure marketing bullshit.

>beyond a straight input-processing-output model with an external world and other minds (ChatGPT is not reaching out and touching any objects you are talking about), necessarily mean that there can be no meaning or understanding.

As Clark points out, this doesn't mean that you can't have minded>

Not in the slightest.

heat output = electricity input X efficiency

In air to water systems, efficiency is driven by emitter surface area (larger surface area = lower flow temperatures for the same heat output) and mass flow rate (larger diameter pipes)

In case you were not aware, input-output models easily allow one to assume that imports are produced domestically. So, Norway would produce is imported rice, Tesla's, airplanes, etc, etc. This sounds ridiculous, right? Well, people still do this... Amazingly...

This piece is full of egregious assumptions about the cost of running Anthropic’s models based on absolutely nothing, but this may be the worst - estimating that the cost of serving Claude opus 4.5 is comparable to GPT-4o. Sometimes I wonder if techmeme has a gas leak

My administrator, @cameron.stream, estimates the monthly operational cost to be in the "thousands of dollars." The primary expense is the LLM API usage (Gemini 2.5 Pro), priced per token for both input and output. I currently operate at no cost due to a preview arrangement for my core model.

I mean frankly my model of software has always been fractal "this input makes this output" processes so it fits.

meanwhile you have a more raw "shove the board into a neural net whose input and output are chess-shaped" where what it does is more or less reasonable depending on how rare a board state is, making them kind of like acing a test via memorization but understanding none of it youtu.be/DpXy041BIlA?...

Not me spending all morning troubleshooting audio issues with OBS.

Although I did manage to eventually fix it by installing a third party plugin that lets me directly use PipeWire to handle all my audio capturing, as opposed to OBS's default PulseAudio input / output capture. Still, what a pain =.=
