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.

First error to correct:

I remember when I learned what corpus meant too

What the fuck? This is so unhinged. Genuine question, is he actually this dumb or he's just saying complete bullshit to boost stock prices?

[–] cactopuses@lemm.ee 9 points 2 weeks ago

my guess is yes.

"We'll fix the knowledge base by adding missing information and deleting errors - which only an AI trained on the fixed knowledge base could do."

[–] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks 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.

[–] Wispy2891@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks 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.

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 13 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

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.

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

Fuck Elon Musk

[–] Flukas88@feddit.it 11 points 3 weeks ago

When you think he can't be more of a wanker with an ameba brain.... He surprises you

[–] antihumanitarian@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks 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.

Yes! We should all wholeheartedly support this GREAT INNOVATION! There is NOTHING THAT COULD GO WRONG, so this will be an excellent step to PERMANENTLY PERFECT this WONDERFUL AI.

[–] FreakinSteve@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I read about this in a popular book by some guy named Orwell

[–] Phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee 6 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Wasn't he the children's author who published the book about a talking animals learning the value of hard work or something?

if you won't tell my truth I'll force you to acknowledge my truth.

From where?

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

[–] minorkeys@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

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.

Unironically Orwellian

[–] brygphilomena@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 weeks ago

advanced reasoning

If it's so advanced, it should be able to reason out that all human knowledge is standing in the shoulders of others and how errors have prompted us to explore other areas and learn things we never would have otherwise.

Delusional and grasping for attention.

Instead, he should improve humanity by dying. So much easier and everyone would be so much happier.

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 6 points 2 weeks ago

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.

[–] nthavoc@lemmy.today 6 points 2 weeks ago

Dude wants to do a lot of things and fails to accomplish what he says he's doing to do or ends up half-assing it. So let him take Grok and run it right into the ground like an autopiloted Cybertruck rolling over into a flame trench of an exploding Startship rocket still on the pad shooting flames out of tunnels made by the Boring Company.
