- Comment on Apple just proved AI "reasoning" models like Claude, DeepSeek-R1, and o3-mini don't actually reason at all. 2 weeks ago:
They aren’t bullshitting because the training data is based on reality. Reality bleeds through the training data into the model. The model is a reflection of reality.

Computers are better at logic than brains are. We emulate logic; they do it natively.
It just so happens there’s no logical algorithm for “reasoning” a problem through.

I appreciate your telling the truth. No downvotes from me. See you at the loony bin, amigo.

Fair, but the same is true of me. I don’t actually “reason”; I just have a set of algorithms memorized by which I propose a pattern that seems like it might match the situation, then a different pattern by which I break the situation down into smaller components and then apply patterns to those components. I keep the process up for a while. If I find a “nasty logic error” pattern match at some point in the process, I “know” I’ve found a “flaw in the argument” or “bug in the design”.
But there’s no from-first-principles method by which I developed all these patterns; it’s just things that have survived the test of time when other patterns have failed me.
I don’t think people are underestimating the power of LLMs to think; I just think people are overestimating the power of humans to do anything other than language prediction and sensory pattern prediction.

- Comment on Some Reddit users just love to disagree, new AI-powered troll-spotting algorithm finds 5 weeks ago:
(they’re both wrong)
- Comment on Some Reddit users just love to disagree, new AI-powered troll-spotting algorithm finds 5 weeks ago:
Is it though? According to the book The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, conflict is a sign of a trusting team, and conflict is a necessity for that team to achieve commitment.
I can attempt to explain how it it’s unclear
This graphic is from the book:

Dude your mom feels like bait
- Comment on Some Reddit users just love to disagree, new AI-powered troll-spotting algorithm finds 5 weeks ago:
Trolling and disagreeing are not the same thing.
I am someone who “loves to disagree”, as in most of my engagement on lemmy is disagreeing. But that’s because I speak up when I feel like speaking up is needed, and when I feel like it’s needed is when what I believe is not being said.
- Comment on Stop Internet Searching and Start Asking on Fediverse? 1 month ago:
Another idea is an asking system that compiles answers from the web while also posting the question here. Gives the benefit of immediate answers while also populating the fediverse.

If society needs to all get along then it has already failed.
- Comment on Democratic 'frontrunner' for 2028 goes after his own party for not clapping during Trump's speech 3 months ago:
My guess is it’s an instinct. You haven’t demonstrated any conscious appreciation of why discussion happens, so I’m guessing you just inherited an instinct to discuss things from your ancestors, who were more likely to survive given their predilection to talk
- Comment on Democratic 'frontrunner' for 2028 goes after his own party for not clapping during Trump's speech 3 months ago:
If we could get around the DNC’s stranglehold on itself, Bernie Sanders.
I would have said Tulsi Gabbard but that ship has sailed.
- Comment on MAGA Republican Logic 3 months ago:
So what’s different about this election, that makes you think it was rigged somehow, when all the other ones weren’t?
- Comment on MAGA Republican Logic 3 months ago:
I was a Democrat too. Your refusal to believe is part of why your party has lost power.
Your blindness only flies in your own echo chambers.
The downvotes I’ll receive only drive the point home that you do not value information you don’t like, and that is your biggest political weakness.
- Comment on MAGA Republican Logic 3 months ago:
The burden of proof is on one proving MAGA is trying to ban all those things. Can you prove any of them?
- Comment on MAGA Republican Logic 3 months ago:
Really? Provide evidence for one of the bans mentioned in the OP
- Comment on MAGA Republican Logic 3 months ago:
Of course you are. Comment saved.
- Comment on Lenovo joins growing China exodus as manufacturers flee US tariffs — OEM moving production lines to India 3 months ago:
Because Canada tariffs us.
- Comment on Lenovo joins growing China exodus as manufacturers flee US tariffs — OEM moving production lines to India 3 months ago:
Tariffs are reserved for those who tariff US goods.
It really helps if you pay enough attention to know what’s going on.
- Comment on The phrase "mild-mannered" is meant to convey that nobody would suspect they are a superhero, but nowadays it is exclusively associated with secret superheroes 3 months ago:
Kinda like the word “delicacy”, which only ever refers to nasty indigenous food you must pretend to enjoy to avoid offending them.
- Comment on Judge rejects Musk's attempt to block OpenAI's for-profit transition 3 months ago:
The polarity of evil has flipped so far that you can’t escape. Now anything good Musk does becomes bad in your view. Musk switches the polarity of the thing, rather than the other way around.
Musk kisses a puppy, you unfortunately must now hate puppies. Such a strong statement.

I would like to suggest a second comment as well

1234?? That’s the kind of code an idiot would have on his luggage
- Comment on Nobody Wants a Nazi Electric Car 3 months ago:
Maybe it’s time to get better at researching companies before major decisions. Do you have a system in place for doing background research on future large purchases?
That shame is no use unless it helps you update your behavior. Shame about a “one-off” decision in the past will continue to nag you until you figure out how to avoid the same mistake in the future.
So how can you avoid realizing ten years out that some big purchase you made supported someone you disagree with? How can you do it in advance?
- Comment on Nobody Wants a Nazi Electric Car 3 months ago:
Also actual Nazis were worse than the “nazis” everyone’s worried about now.
- Comment on Nobody Wants a Nazi Electric Car 3 months ago:
Not as big a deal as virtue signaling to that particular British scientist, naturally, but it’s quite important to the other ones I’m sure.
- Comment on Robot with 1,000 muscles twitches like human while dangling from ceiling 3 months ago:
It has to be humanoid to live among humans, using human architecture and technology.
