  yes, google reported about their ai discovering a novel cancer treatment, of course they did?

  now tell me about how it isn’t true.

    I sure do. Knowledge, and being in the space for a decade.

    Here’s a fun one: go ask your LLM why it can’t create novel ideas, it’ll tell you right away 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    LLMs have ZERO intentional logic that allow it to even comprehend an idea, let alone craft a new one and create relationships between others.

    I can already tell from your tone you’re mostly driven by bullshit PR hype from people like Sam Altman , and are an “AI” fanboy, so I won’t waste my time arguing with you. You’re in love with human-made logic loops and datasets, bruh. There is, and never was, a way for any of it to become some supreme being of ideas and knowledge. You’re drunk on Kool-Aid, kiddo.

      You sound drunk on kool-aid, this is a validated scientific report from yale, tell me a problem with the methodology or anything of substance.

        Wow, you stayed way cooler than I would have. Lemmy is extremely anti-LLM or AI in general.

        🤦🤦🤦 No…it really isn’t:

        Teams at Yale are now exploring the mechanism uncovered here and testing additional AI-generated predictions in other immune contexts.

        Not only is there no validation, they have only begun even looking at it.

        Again: LLMs can’t make novel ideas. This is PR, and because you’re unfamiliar with how any of it works, you assume MAGIC.

        Like every other bullshit PR release of it’s kind, this is simply a model being fed a ton of data and running through thousands of millions of iterative segments testing outcomes of various combinations of things that would take humans years to do. It’s not that it is intelligent or making “discoveries”, it’s just moving really fast.

        You feed it 10^2^ combinations of amino acids, and it’s eventually going to find new chains needed for protein folding. The thing you’re missing there is:

        1. all the logic programmed by humans
        2. The data collected and sanitized by humans
        3. The task groups set by humans
        4. The output validated by humans

        It’s a tool for moving fast though data, a.k.a. A REALLY FAST SORTING MECHANISM

        Nothing at any stage if developed, I outted, or validated by any models, because…they can’t do that.

        Oof. Tell me you don’t understand science without telling me you don’t understand science.
