Comment on Authors Are Furious After Finding Their Works on List of Books Used To Train AI
Khalic@kbin.social 11 months agoThe brain does not work the way you think… (I work in the field, bio-informatics). What you call “neural networks” come from an early misunderstanding of how the brain stores information. It’s a LOT more complicated and frankly, barely understood.
It’s a LOT more complicated and frankly, barely understood.
Yet you confidently state that the brain doesn't work the way LLMs do?
Obviously it doesn't work exactly the same way that LLMs do, if only because of the completely different substrates. But when you get to more nebulous concepts like "creativity" and "inspiration" it's not so clear.
The part where brain and neural net differ is in the learning via backpropagation, that seem to be done different in the brain, as there is no mechanism to go backwards through the network and jiggle the weights.
That aside, they seem to work very similar once they are trained, as the knowledge they are able to extract from data ends up being basically the same that a human would be able to extract. There is surprisingly little weirdness in AI and a surprising amount of human-like capabilities.
people have a definite fear of being defined as machines... not sure why we think were so special..
so its barely understood, but this definitely is not it. got it.
But you, random stranger on the internet, knows better than the guy that literally works in the field. Got it.
i do? where did i claim that?

Yeah, accurately simulating a single pyramidal neuron requires an eight-layer deep neural network:
