Imagine, for a moment, if we (humanity) were created to live in a simulation. We suffer and feel pain because our creators do not perceive us to be conscious. In fact, maybe we don’t qualify compared to their level of sentience. Sucks to be us, I guess?

Orthodox and Catholic Christian theology of suffering is actually very logical. Just most people were not taught it unfortunately.

So let's acquire good karma by being nice to animals.

What does suffering or pain even mean for a purely analytical entity like an LLM? We can feel pain because we have a body, pain receptors, and parts of our brain dedicated to converting their signals to a subjective experience. What can an LLM "feel"? The words pain, happiness, sadness, suffering are all abstractions of real experiences that can not yet be encoded in a way that an LLM can use as input. All the LLM has are the abstractions.

Speak for yourself. I would much rather work for and elect AI.

I for one welcome our AI overlords :D think about it, I'm with you on this one; an AI wont have petty issues or unresolved trauma when managing people, only hallucinations and blackouts. So a cocaine/meth addicted 80's boss from an it sitcom.

Do you realize how many times ive read your exact copy pasted comment on the internet the last 6 years?

That’s an interesting algorithm you use to classify anything driven by an algorithm.

A time posted sort is an algorithm too. But that's obviously not what's meant here even if the "gotcha" is there for that too. It's the combination of profitability motivations and manipulation of dopamine responses that are the outcomes people object to.

AI can compress AI nearly losslessly.

Only Minecraft is Minecraft. Is that the bar for creating Minecraft?

It just kills me how there is this meme that minecraft is just walking around on a bunch of grass and dirt voxels and if you have that, you have minecraft. It was way, way more complicated than that even 15 years ago.

The type of people that can’t get results are the people that don’t share the process that didn’t work for them.

Its been months since then!


Many of us use LLMs to generate code, tools and other artifacts without agents.


Could you give me an example? Like a real example of an LLM based application with no chat? Now that I think of it something like Tavily comes to mind as an example.
