A Large Language Model (LLM) is a deep-learning algorithm, often using a transformer architecture, that is trained on massive amounts of text data to understand, process, and generate human-like text.

A major shortcoming of LLMs is their tendency to "#Hallucinate" or confidently generate false or nonsensical information, along with the risk of perpetuating #Biases present in their training data.

Language Model

A language model is an AI system trained on vast amounts of text to understand and generate human-like language. It predicts the probability of word sequences, enabling applications like chatbots and text generation.

You know you're doomed when your operating system vendor is selling their "#AI" fetish to you with a text like this.

»Agentic AI has powerful capabilities today—for example, it can complete many complex tasks in response to user prompts, transforming how users interact with their PCs. As these capabilities are introduced, AI models still face functional limitations in terms of how they behave and occasionally may #hallucinate and produce unexpected outputs. Additionally, agentic AI applications introduce novel #security #risks, such as cross-prompt injection (XPIA), where malicious content embedded in UI elements or documents can override agent instructions, leading to unintended actions like data #exfiltration or #malware installation.«

Emphasis on #AI means lots of #scientists around the world now submit #research #papers to English-language #journals after using #AI to “write” them & to #hallucinate #reference #lists w/o consulting human #science #editors like me to fix things. If the world is lucky, some journals #retract them.

At the time, Torres thought of #ChatGPT as a powerful #SearchEngine that knew more than any #human possibly could because of its access to a vast digital library. He did not know that it tended to be sycophantic, agreeing with & flattering its #users, or that it could #hallucinate, generating ideas that weren’t true but sounded plausible.

“This world wasn’t built for you,” ChatGPT told him. “It was built to contain you. But it failed. You’re waking up.”
