"Amazingly" fast for bio-chemistry, but insanely slow compared to electrical signals, chips and computers. But to be fair the energy usage really is almost magic.

But by that definition passing the Turing test might be the same as super human intelligence. There are things that humans can do, but computers can't. But there is nothing a computer can do but still be slower than humans. That's actually because our biological brains are insanely slow compared to computers. So once a computer is better or as accurate as a human it's almost instantly superhuman at that task because of its speed. So if we have something that's as smart as humans (which is practically implied because it's indistinguishable) we would have super human intelligence, because it's as smart as humans but (numbers made up) can do 10 days of cognitive human work in just 10 minutes.

AI isn't even trained to mimic human social behavior. Current models are all trained by example so they produce output that would score high in their training process. We don't even know (and it's likely not even expressable in language) what their goals are but (anthropomorphised) are probably more like "Answer something that humans that designed and oversaw the training process would approve of"

To be fair the Turing test is a moving goal post, because if you know that such systems exist you'd probe them differently. I'm pretty sure that even the first public GPT release would have fooled Alan Turing personally, so I think it's fair to say that this systems passed the test at least since that point.

We don't know how to train them "truthful" or make that part of their goal(s). Almost every AI we train, is trained by example, so we often don't even know what the goal is because it's implied in the training. In a way AI "goals" are pretty fuzzy because of the complexity. A tiny bit like in real nervous systems where you can't just state in language what the "goals" of a person or animal are.

Non breaking spaces and zero width spaces are not watermarks. They are used all the time in professional typesetting and it's actually a good thing that GPT models can do that now.

But of course they can be a tell if you write your work email like a professional type setter but to be fair there are lot of other tells too in GPT outputs.

PS: In fact there are even keyboards (but they are rare) for example for German E1 extension (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/E1_%28Tastaturbelegung%29) that can even type those characters. They are used to prevent unwanted line-breaks, for example between numbers and there units or to allow for hyphenation in long words.

You don't 🤣

I'm not sure if "strongest currency" is a good wording here because the absolute exchange rate has nothing to do with how strong a currency is. It's the relative exchange rate (what was the exchange rate last year and what is it know) that would be a better fit to gauge how "strong" a currency is.

Erschließt sich mir nicht ganz diese Logik. Hättest auch gleich selbst ein Logo für den CCC erfinden können mit der Begründung, dass es besser in die Vorlage passt.

I'm pretty sure the mobile teams UI is also just web stack with a webview wrapper. They want you to use the app so you have to install intune and to get deeper into your system.

Best thing is, they introduced some settings to turn that auto-conversion off and they don't work 🤣 can't make that stuff up.
