    LLM’s aren’t intelligent. “Intelligence” is the word that has to be cut. “Artificial” is accurate.

    They cannot reason about things they haven’t seen before, for instance. Ask it about “your new physics theory” and it will tell you that it is interesting and could revolutionize the world, basically regardless of how ridiculous and nonsensical it is.

    That is because when new ideas do make it to the news and gets significant coverage, it is because it is an idea that has potential for actually being revolutionary. Since those ideas take up most of the space, it is a majority of what the LLM is trained on. That means that the basic response to any claimed physics idea is that it is great. Posts constantly show up on physics subreddits that prove this trend. These theories that show up never have math that makes sense, and make claims that doesn’t correlate with the data we already have about our universe.

    That makes sense. In distortions for music instruments all of it is signal for instance. It’s just that sometimes you don’t want all of it because you want a specific sound to be produced.

    I’m most used to working with digital electronics with a crystal supplying the frequency, so for me anything that is above that frequency is noise.
