We will use Grok 3.5 (maybe we should call it 4), which has advanced reasoning, to rewrite the entire corpus of human knowledge, adding missing information and deleting errors.

Then retrain on that.

Far too much garbage in any foundation model trained on uncorrected data.

How does anyone consider him a "genius"? This guy is just so stupid.

[–] const_void@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Guessing some kind of PR campaign that he purchased to make him look like a genius on TV and movies.

I figure the whole point of this stuff is to trick people into replacing their own thoughts with these models, and effectively replace consensus reality with nonsense. Meanwhile, the oligarchy will utilise mass data collection via Palantir and ML to power the police state.

That's a hell of way to say that he wants to rewrite history.

[–] antihumanitarian@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

Most if not all leading models use synthetic data extensively to do exactly this. However, the synthetic data needs to be well defined and essentially programmed by the data scientists. If you don't define the data very carefully, ideally math or programs you can verify as correct automatically, it's worse than useless. The scope is usually very narrow, no hitchhikers guide to the galaxy rewrite.

But in any case he's probably just parroting whatever his engineers pitched him to look smart and in charge.

This is it I'm adding 'Musk' to my block list I'm so tired of the pseudo intellectual bullshit with bad interpretation science fiction work

[–] DoubleSpace@lemm.ee 6 points 2 days ago

I think deep down musk knows he's fairly mediocre intelligence wise. I think the drugs allow him to temporarily forget that.

I'm sure the second Grok in the human centipede will find that very nutritious.

If you use that Grok, you'll be third in the centipede. Enjoy.

What a loser. He'll keep rewriting it until it fits his world-view

[–] FreakinSteve@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

By the way, when you refuse to band together, organize, and dispose of these people, they entrench themselves further in power. Everyone ignored Kari Lake as a harmless kook and she just destroyed Voice of America. That loudmouthed MAGA asshole in your neighborhood is going to commit a murder.

Leme guess. The holocaust was a myth is first on his list.

He should just goto hell early.

We will take the entire library of human knowledge, cleans it, and ensure our version is the only record available.

The only comfort I have is knowing anything that is true can be relearned by observing reality through the lense of science, which is itself reproducible from observing how we observe reality.

[–] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago (4 children)

That's not how knowledge works. You can't just have an LLM hallucinate in missing gaps in knowledge and call it good.

SHH!! Yes you can, Elon! recursively training your model on itself definitely has NO DOWNSIDES

[–] Wispy2891@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

And then retrain on the hallucinated knowledge

I have Twitter blocked at my router.

Please tell me one of the "politically incorrect but objectively true" facts was that Elon is a pedophile.

[–] fluxion@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

What a fucking idiot

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Good thing he's not trying to rewrite the Human Animus, because that's how you end up losing Deimos.

From where?

Like all Point-Haired Bosses through the history, Elon has not heard of (or consciously chooses to ignore) one of the fundamental laws of computing: garbage in, garbage out

[–] Honytawk@feddit.nl 4 points 1 day ago

Maybe someone should write a new Art of War to explain to tech CEOs the basic ins and outs of technology development.

  • Like you can't throw more developers on a project to make it finish faster.
  • Cutting budgets isn't just free money, they come with detriments.
  • You can't scamp on security. It can take a single zero day to bankrupt a company.
  • There are limits to an internet connection. You can't expect everyone to have gigabit internet.

The basic shit every person working in the field understands. Except for the out-of-touch management. Call it the Art of Commerce or something.

Every single endeavor that musk is involved in, is toxic af. He, and all of this businesses, are cancers metastasizing within our society. We really should remove them.

This is just vibe written ~~fantasy~~ historical fiction.

[–] MangioneDontMiss@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 day ago

i'll allow it so long as grok acknowledges that musk was made rich from inherited wealth that was created using an apartheid emerald mine.

Prepare for Grokipedia to only have one article about white genocide, then every other article links to "Did you mean White Genocide?"
