More complex forms of reasoning in the context of “Reasoning Systems” is video game NPC Ai. They take the current game state and “reason” about what action they should take now or even soon in the future. Really good video game Ai will use your velocity to pre-aim projectiles at where you’ll be in the future instead of where you are currently. The NPC analogy is one of the very thing’s being described by the term

If you truly believe that you fundamentally misunderstand the definition of that word or are being purposely disingenuous as you Ai brown nose folk tend to be. To pretend for a second you genuinely just don’t understand how to read LLMs, the most advanced “Ai” they are trying to sell everybody is as capable of reasoning as any compression algorithm, jpg, png, webp, zip, tar whatever you want. They cannot reason. They take some input and generate an output deterministically. The reason the output changes slightly is because they put random shit in there for complicated important reasons.
Again to recap here LLMs and similar neural network “Ai” is as capable of reasoning as any other computer program you interact with knowingly or unknowingly, that being not at all. Your silly Wikipedia page is a very specific term “Reasoning System” which would include stuff like standard video game NPC Ai such as the zombies in Minecraft. I hope you aren’t stupid enough to say those are capable of reasoning

They can’t reason. LLMs, the tech all the latest and greatest still are, like GPT5 or whatever generate output by taking every previous token (simplified) and using them to generate the most likely next token. Thanks to their training this results in pretty good human looking language among other things like somewhat effective code output (thanks to sites like stack overflow being included in the training data).
Generating images works essentially the same way but is more easily described as reverse jpg compression. You think I’m joking? No really they start out with static and then transform the static using a bunch of wave functions they came up with during training. LLMs and the image generation stuff is equally able to reason, that being not at all whatsoever

No actually! Musks entire involvement with PayPal was being fired by the company he founded which then later down the road was bought out by PayPal when the people who fired him for incompetence turned it around and made it valuable enough PayPal wanted it

- Comment on Google is intentionally throttling YouTube videos, slowing down users with ad blockers 2 months ago:
I did not always use an ad blocker. Frankly my stance is they’ve made their bed, now they get to lie down in it. If it wasn’t for YouTubes ad quality being so poor I would have never bothered taking the 30 seconds it takes to install an adblock those 10 or so years ago
- Comment on An earnest question about the AI/LLM hate 2 months ago:
Okay so imagine for a second that somebody just invented voice to text and everyone trying to sell it to you lies about it and claims it can read your thoughts and nobody will ever type things manually ever again.
The people trying to sell us LLMs lie about how they work and what they actually do. They generate text that looks like a human wrote it. That’s all they do. There’s some interesting attributes of this behavior, namely that when prompted with text that’s a question the LLM will usually end up generating text that ends up being an answer. The LLM doesn’t understand any part of this process any better than your phones autocorrect, it’s just really good at generating text that looks like stuff it’s seen in training. Depending on what exactly you want this thing to do it can be extremely useful or a complete scam. Take for example code generation. By and large they can generate code mostly okay, I’d say they tend to be slightly worse than a competent human. Genuinely really impressive for what it is, but it’s not revolutionary. Basically the only actual use cases for this tech so far has been glorified autocomplete. It’s kind of like NFTs or Crypto at large, there is actual utility there but nobody who’s trying to sell the idea to you is actually involved or cares about that part, they just want to trick you into becoming their new money printer.

I caught up, chapter 50. Um so frankly put this is just porn. I’m genuinely kind of invested now though so fuck it, this is going on my trackers
- Comment on "Kinks" 2 months ago:
Hmmmmmmmm
Half way through the first chapter and it hasn’t hooked me yet but I am still… intrigued.
Okay so chapter two down and I think I’m noticing a pattern in who is bothering to translate this Manga so far. Both chapters were done by totally different people and neither was super high quality (though not terrible). Wonder if pattern persists since there’s 50 chapters at least where I’m sourcing it from.
Lol this dudes a trooper they learned not just English but also Japanese competently enough to translate it well enough. Hats off to you Chekov
Chapter 6
Damn she snowballed him lmao
I’m not sure why exactly but the fact they are going to research more “lewd sounds” is incredibly funny to me Image
Alright so chapter 8 kind of hooked me, been about half an hour of time investment so far including updating this here comment so if anyone else is also curious there ya go.

- Comment on Why Japan's animation industry has embraced AI 2 months ago:
It hasn’t though? That short “film” in the thumbnail is very not great. Just to summarize a few issues clothing items randomly change colors, clothes randomly switch to different clothes, they attempted to copy the really nice crane shot in Frieren but used “AI” to do it which just smeared ugly green shit around the screen cause there were leaves, a path they are walking on randomly changes material multiple times, ect ect. All the usual AI video crap. They didn’t solve any of the issues it has and it there’s one “animator” credited.
Spoilers if you care (no I’m not going to actually mark them) but there’s a part where using AI would have been a really good directing decision, especially with the faults but because the “director” is just a tech bro who’s incapable of understanding art they completely missed an extremely good use case.
Actual animation studios don’t and won’t use this crap until it’s dramatically better. The closest thing they currently use is cacani (actually an interesting tool scroll through that) and it uses absolutely no “Ai” whatsoever

I genuinely don’t know why people are confused about the Demons in frieren. They are fundamentally incompatible with humanity. There is no Grey zone. They are monsters, not your happy friendly fantasy where some monsters are good monster monsters. The only connections they are capable of understanding is strength. The only language they truly understand is power. They learned the human tongue not to communicate but to manipulate. The anime and the Manga make it exceptionally clear, the Demons in Frieren are just monsters. There is no redemption. Just like how you can’t genocide a lion, or a mosquito you cannot genocide the demons in frieren.

No you can’t? Do you even know what the steam deck is? It’s a hand held gaming device, like the Nintendo Switch. Adding a computer monitor to the steam decks price tag is nonsensical. Like the Switch you’d be using a TV if your hooking it into a monitor. A wireless controller? Why? It’s a steam deck it has a controller built in. Joystick grips? The fact you think those are needed goes to show how shit the standard console controllers are lmao.
- Comment on Any one else here have watched RE:Zero Season 2 anime subbed? 3 months ago:
Subs are usually on screen for as long as people are saying the words. When they talk quickly they go by quickly. Also it just depends? There’s a bunch of different Re:Zero subs a particular legal one standing out as being awful (good ol Crunchyroll). You probably just read slowly, you’ll speed up with practice
- Comment on A fluid battery that can take any shape. 4 months ago:
Actual new battery tech? I didn’t see the capacity listed/compared to a normal lith-ion of the same volume but it does say they have some issues with voltage. I’m not sure how annoying that actually is (not super good with electricity) but this looks rather promising. Might see smart watches and similar devices without any flat hard surfaces using these combined with flexable screen tech. Course like always this stuff is extremely reliant on the capacity being workable, if it’s too much less than the equivalent in lith-ion it’s just not going to get used.
