Someone recently said that llms being deterministic meant that when they ordered a coffee they always got 1, not sometimes getting 2.
I pointed out they wanted determinism and correctness, and they said "that's the worst pro AI argument ive ever heard"
I dont understand how that is pro AI 😂 so... they werent wrong i guess?
The world is a weird place
@demofox I think they are just furious that you corrected them.
@bitinn @demofox how dare you figure me out!
@demofox I'm not a fan of AI. When it comes to a specific problem, it's highly unlikely that two programmers will write the same code. Human creativity lacks that kind of determinism.
Anyway, that's a bit off topic.
@ycwang I dont like how AI means LLM now 😂
There are some cool things in ML that belong in the computer science toolkit that are lumped in with the LLM hype BS.
@demofox Correctness is arguably more important than deterministism. I don't care what words it uses to order the coffee, but I certainly want it to get exactly one coffee. I don't care if the same program generated exactly the same image for the same query, but I care they both generated a correct interpretation of the query.
