Let’s say I give you a discord link and tell you that half the people are bots and half aren’t. Realistically, LLMs are at a level where you won’t be able to tell which is which.
So what then. You are only having a conversation half the time but you can’t point out when that is? Feels a bit hollow.
This probably happens on Lemmy. You probably have interactions that you qualify as conversations in your head but that are with bots.
back and forths sure. only some attain the level of a conversation. yeah bots exist but social media is not a subsitute for the real world. I would not call it semantics. its my experience talking/chatting with humans and with ai. My big thing with folk who want to get an idea of llm limits is to engage it with a topic you are very familiar with or can see the effects immediately like playing a video game. I have been using it with balders gate and its been. interesting.
Ya I get what you mean, I’m just saying that to say there’s a difference, you would have to be able to see that difference in a blind test.
I understand they have limits, but so do regular people. You don’t need to be an expert on a subject to hold a conversation about it.
They aren’t intelligent and all that, and make the stupidest mistakes but they can more or less hold a convo just as well as the average rando on the internet.
It’s definitely hollow but I get why people are getting caught up in it.
Kind of feels like semantics.

People are in for a rude awakening when we discover that ‘next token prediction’ is what intelligence means after all.
