if i would have done this in the morning probably would have been fine, but trying to do it in the afternoon with the heat and humidity i was killing myself. called it quits on the third interval when i realized my breathing was too labored.

@movq I can't debug it, I don't have the knowledge to do it. One thing I have noticed on LLMs is they don't excel at mathematics (duh!). They are better at providing information that already exists, sometimes even in a logical way, or generating artistic outcomes (poems, songs, letters, images, videos, etc.). They can even generate decent code! (granted, not to be blindly trusted, but very helpful for a programmer, as it could speed up development process).
I have found other issues, like asking it who was the youngest person to ever been elected president of the United States. It often replies with wrong information to things that should be trivial knowledge. Every once in a while fully hallucinates.
The technology is rapidly evolving. I wouldn't just dis it, and simply call it "pieces of crap", or worthless things. There has been other things/technologies/stuff that worked/performed/functioned bad in their infancy, but then get better, and more useful, over time.
@bender Honest question (since I obviously know very little about this): Can you debug this? Letās take the strawberry example. Can you pinpoint which bytes in your data/model/code/whatever are responsible for the answer āthere are 2 Rsā, and then go ahead and fix them without affecting anything else?

@prologic one can understand how LLMs work, and even train one (with the needed hardware), if interested (that, of course, will not happen if uninterested to begin with).
I think LLMs, and whatever they morph into, will be useful. They are also not going away. As for the energy consumption, well, some say it is a good thing, as it will speed up the transition to green energy usage. :-)
@prologic all fundraising I have ever seeing are for institutions/centres/organisations, etc., that have a really big operating cost (they spend millions), or revenue (they spend, and also make, millions). That's how they managed to do both, spend, and make! LOL.

@bender I mean @movq is basisally spot on! These pieces of crap are just large expensive statistical models that occasionally spit out something sort of valid for some reason, but otherwise are the most useless idiotic and inefficient things I've ever seen or used.

@movq Yes, classical "Abraummulden" and "Abrollcontainer". I haven't heard of any numbers yet, but I imagine that 100 houses have been affected. Probably more.
Here are a few photos: https://eislingen-online.de/_artikelanzeige.php?bearbeiten=_2024/2024_1150
But it's worse downstream in Ebersbach/Fils, if you want to read up on that. That's where the noise barrier collapsed onto B10 (I was mistaken on that regard, though, it wasn't the real river, but an overflowing water retention reservoir or something like that uphill that created a giant river, rushing down the streets and gardens, ripping out the accustic barrier). When water levels slightly dropped on Sunday evening, everybody here thought that we survived with only small damages, if at all. So the local fire service responded to help in Ebersbach where it had really escalated. However, they had to return shortly after, when a massive thunderstorm surprised us with very heavy rain and "land submerged" was reported back at home.

Went down to the creek and there's a skip in front of every house. Oh dear. Normally, the creek is a few meters below the tree line in 01-03. But as you can see, it went over the fields, several tens of meters wide.
Three days after the flood
The fire engine house next to the creek was also flooded. But the operational capability of the fire brigade was not affected as they already responded.
It's crazy how the relatively shallow field road on top of the hill looks. It was already in bad shape, but that's now another level. The drainage area is rather small, but tons of gravel is now in the meadows. 10cm deep holes and ditches in the road. The very loose gravel is difficult to cycle and walk on.

@prologic Sometimes some ācoding AIā spits out some partially useful snippet, and then one of us nerds panics and claims the end is nigh. I think thatās about it. š¤
All these āAIā topics are extremely boring to me. (Traditional) computer stuff is a hobby and a passion of mine because I can *understand* it. How does an operating system work, how does a web server work, how does a keyboard work, how do you do 3D graphics, ā¦ All those are things that I can learn and understand, and thatās the thrill. But anything related to āAIā? Itās just statistics and a large model that spits out something for some reason ā¦ Super boring. I couldnāt be less interested.
And on top of that, āAIā requires a ton of energy (as far as I know), which we, as a species, cannot afford right now. It needs to stop.

FWIW I tend to find most 8-5 gigs aren't really interested in simplicity or efficiency. Software are often all quite meeslessly complex and hard to maintain both organizationally and technically.
I think part of it is also human nature and the effect of adding more people to projects or organizations.
I'm often reminded when coming across things like htmx of the adage of an Enterprise software team vs. a Startup or Open source team developing the same solution.
Aho gets it done faster, better and more efficiently?
