> PhD level science questions? (+1)
niftydude an hour ago
A PhD level science question is a question that can only be answered by scientific research and experimentation.
And no, by "research", I do not mean googling.
Literally the whole point of a scientific PhD is to perform experiments and study to answer a specific research question that no one has looked into yet.
Whilst ChatGPT can probably can answer "PhD-level science questions" with the same generation of plausible bullshit it answers all questions, I very much doubt ChatGPT can answer PhD-level science questions with any sort of accuracy.
It can't do that without performing experiments (that in some cases might be complex enough to last years).
Just more of the marketing BS silicon valley seems to be full of these days. Remember when California was actually making products that benefited society as well as making money?

Also, Thank you bringing it up. It's literally a goldmine and it woud've taken me ages to stumble upon it all by myselfe (if I ever did). xD

@prologic Heck yeah, gorgeous! Did you hike up there?
@movq Uuuh, nice! Despite the weather service claiming that it is snowing at this very moment, there is absolutely nothing here.
It just worked fine like nothing had ever happened when I booted my laptop this morning.

@prologic which models do you prefer, and what made you prefer them?
@prologic believe it or not, those green leaves and vines are eatable! Nice view, mate. Love the skies and mountains at the horizon!

Esta #musiquinta é "pra chocar a família", e então aqui vai uma música de Fuckness. Não é algo que costume ouvir, mas por acaso ouvi disto anteontem, e foi o que me veio à cabeça quando li o tema desta semana.
A música é a "Domingo de manhã", mas podia ser qualquer uma, as músicas deles são todas elas na mesma onda 😛

I like to think of it like this. It takes approximately five months of power, relatively speaking to power, the human brain vs. multiple megawatts hell even multiple gigawatts of power to power even some of the most modest and yet surprisingly complex AI models.

There is something about human intelligence that we don't quite yet understand, and it isn't in the complexity or increasing the number of parameters to the order of billions 🤣

In other words, I don't think we can realistically even come close to emulating, emotion, depth, and creativity

@movq This random comment from another Slashdot article pretry much sums up my view on so-called "AI":
> Elevator music

If you derive your income from producing "elevator music" you might indeed be in danger of losing that income to AI. Also, bumper music--music used to fill otherwise silent gaps between segments of a podcast or radio show--might be a candidate for AI takeover.
But if you produce real music--music with depth and emotion--your job isn't going anywhere.
How can I be so sure? I've seen the kind of code AI writes. I've seen the kind of prose AI writes. Both are amazing, for something computer-generated. But neither would be mistaken for the work of someone skilled or proficient in the art. Music won't be any different.

@aelaraji That was exactly the idea. 😀 (Yeah, there might be people who consider AI stuff “art”. On some level, I think that it *is* art, but not in the same way as a human being creating something.)
