You're right. I will stand corrected.

Can? Are.

Some of them, of course.

This is all good info, thanks.

I just have one minor nitpick:

An LLM takes about 80 watts per inquiry reference. So a LLM takes quite a bit more energy per connection to run. We’re running 100x the connections on 1/4th the power.

The math is wrong here. At "rest", the brain is still doing work. What you call "an inquiry reference", is just one LLM operation. I'm sure the human brain is doing much more than that. A human being is thinking "what should I have for dinner?" "What should have I said to Gwen instead?" "That ceiling needs some paint" "My back hurts a bit". That clang you heard earlier in the distance? You didn't pay attention to it at the time, but your brain surely did. Let's not begin with the body functions that the brain, yes, the brain, must manage.

So an LLM is much, much, much more resource intensive than that claim.

Yes.

That is indeed the solution.

A technical solution won't cut it. Here's a very convoluted example: the tag allows you to send the text "buy illegal drugs here" to kids!! Omg!!! What to do? Remove the tag? Obviously not. You ban the practice.

All fine and dandy. Do you have an answer to OPs question?

If only there was a way to find out. . .

"Hey AI, write me a random poem about taladar."

That's why I said "as standalone things." As a computing curiosity, they're amazing. No language processing application like this existed 30 years ago when I was a kid. You could also see "talking computers" speaking naturally, pretending or not, on movies and TV shows.

"They".

What are you?

I don’t believe it would work well otherwise

What a weird comment to say about a device that's actually working well.

This is a "guns don't kill people - people kill people" kind of scenario.

As a standalone thing, LLMs are awesome.

What sucks is greedy people using them for the wrong reasons.

It's like robots. Playing with robots are awesome. Firing 1,000 people and replacing them with robots - and not sharing the benefits with the community sucks.
