  • The issue is (as I’ve said before) that we’ve essentially created a computer program that is just as fallible as humans.

    Id say it is worse, as we have more physical presence. We can think it rains, look outside and realize somebody is spraying water on the windows and we were wrong. The LLM can only react to input, and after a correction will apologize, and then you have a high chance it will still talk about how it rains.

    We can also actually count and actually understand things, and not just predict what the next most likely word is.

    But yes, I don’t get from a security perspective people include LLMs in things, also with the whole data flows back into the LLM thing for training a lot of the LLM providers are prob doing.




  • It isn’t just Kirkegaards shitrag btw, a while back some other race and IQ like paper who tried to prove that people didn’t all come from Africa or something had calculations which assumed the earth was flat. (prob not because they are flat earthers, but because they didn’t get the math).

    Btw, on the really low IQ scores thing, this is an average. So if the bellcurve holds, this means there is a large amount of people in Africa with a sub 60 IQ. All of whom seemingly can function normally without needing assistance. Which means that either the measure is useless (and all these people with an IQ of 30 are doing fine (and in Nigeria are using the internet to scam IQ 130 westerners), and variants in IQ are meaningless (sorry to the 130+ average SSC reader), or the measurements are wrong (and also useless). Also, due to the bellcurve, university level IQ people from Africa should be so rare there is also just a handful of them. Which, considering we had a group of students from Africa (forgot which countries sorry) means I met all of them. (E: of course the supposed bell curve distribution of intelligence also doesn’t hold if you look at this graph and notice that there simply are no 140 IQ countries while there are 60 ones).

    To me it doesn’t pass the sniff test, which makes me feel sorry for Scott, after all the extreme precautions he took to not get covid, it still blasted away his sense of smell.








  • isn’t it racist / dumb to say they have 60 IQ?

    no according to Kirkegaard

    Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu (pause to catch breath) uh.

    A well at least the mask is totally off now.

    E: and a thing that has been bothering me, it is quite fucked up for somebody with Scotts education to go along with this argument about disabled people that easily.

    content warning for this paragraph

    (Not that this is the first time he forgets he has an official education, and cant just ignore that (yes im still mad about the time he said “well she had mental health issues and was a liar” or something about the woman who tragically ended her life after accusing parts of the community of sexual abuse, and didnt mention that a reputation like that would increase the risk of abuse)).
