Sturmflut<p>Someone e-mailed me asking why they couldn't find some piece of information on my website "any longer".

Androcat<p>If you understand Virtue Epistomology (VE), you cannot accept any LLM output as "information".</p><p>VE is an attempt to correct the various omniscience-problems inherent in classical epistemologies, which all to some extent require a person to know what the Truth is in order to evaluate if some statement is true.</p><p>VE prescribes that we should look to how the information was obtained, particularly in two ways:<br>1) Was the information obtained using a well-known method that is known to produce good results?<br>2) Does the method appear to have been applied correctly in this particular case?</p><p>LLM output always fails on pt1. An LLM will not look for the truth. It will just look for what is a probable combination of words. This means that an LLM is just as likely to combine a number of true statements in a way that is probable but false, as it is to combine them in a way that is probable and true. </p><p>LLMs only sample the probability of word combinations. It doesn't understand the input, and it doesn't understand its own output.</p><p>Only a damned fool would use it for anything, ever.</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/epistemology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>epistemology</span></a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LLM</span></a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/generativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>generativeAI</span></a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtificialIntelligence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtificialIntelligence</span></a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/ArtificialStupidity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArtificialStupidity</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/philosophy" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>philosophy</span></a></span></p>
