politics @lemmy.world•I Asked ChatGPT What Would Happen If Billionaires Paid Taxes at the Same Rate as the Average Texas Resident
1·10 months agoMy favorite example was when they gave all the top LLMs a task to figure out how many circles in an image were touching. Every single one failed miserably at this task that would have been trivial for a 3 year old.
Unless the answer was five. Because of the Olympics logo.

politics @lemmy.world•Damning Poll Hits Trump With Record Disapproval Rating
8·10 months agoDisregarding sampling bias and other effects, sure, 1,245 is enough for a statistically significant representative sample. You can’t do a lot of subsampling or cohort analysis from it, but if you just want to infer the behavior and attitudes of “Americans” and you sample that many Americans effectively enough, you’re fine.
But practically speaking, no. You’re not going to sample that many Americans effectively enough. Polling is a shitshow these days.

14·10 months agoBig brain move, asking an LLM to do economics math. They’re large LANGUAGE models, not large MATHEMATICAL models. They forgo rigorous methodologies in favor of stochastically predicting correlations based on intractably large datasets, which can lead to such impressive mathematical feats as failing to count to three. Great job, Yahoo.

86·1 year agoI have a great idea for a name, too. They can call them Guard Emplacements Suppressing Tyranny And Protecting Order.
No, he actually steals one from them and absorbs its power.
It, unlike this post, is very good. It’s by the guy who made Veep and it’s unbelievable yet disturbingly true to life.
Fun fact: they toned down the medals for this character because it seemed too absurd.
