_The AI Scaling Wall: Will LLMs Ever Be Able To Reason?_

Artificial, human-level general intelligence is farther away than it appears—MUCH farther, apparently.

"...LLMs are not principled reasoners but rather sophisticated simulators of reasoning-like text."

"Collectively...CoT [Chain of Thought] reasoning fails to generalize to novel transformations, not even to novel composition transforms. Rather than demonstrating a true understanding of text, CoT reasoning under task transformations appears to reflect a replication of patterns learned during training."

They're just instances of Searle's Chinese Room, hyped far beyond their actual competence. They're glorified internet search engines whose results are summaries of their training data—which, by the way, was statically pre-selected. The way those summaries are generated has been shaped—distorted—using not the preferences of their users, but that of their creators.

That best SF/F poll going around - I like all of them, but one is not near being in the same league as the others... One starts a trilogy really well but I couldn't finish the last one so I can jettison it rather unfairly... The author of another is inconsistent (but I liked this one)... So that leaves me with 4...

Eventually I settled on one currently in 3rd place as it gripped me from the start whereas the one in the lead took me a while to pluck up the oomph to actually read

But so hard

Black Ops 7 beta dates and details

When is the Black Ops 7 beta? How is it that time of the year again? It feels like summer has barely started, and we're counting down to those cozy fall evenings spent in front of the newest Call of Duty game.

Now imagine how young folk in Scotland feel.

Scots voted two-thirds to one-third to REMAIN in the E.U. yet we were forcibly removed by principally English & Welsh idiots longing for their ‘sovrinty’.

And many in Scotland now suffering this loss of free movement across the E.U. didn’t even get a say in the decision. Perhaps English & Welsh Brexiters might want to apologise to Scottish youth - then again, Anglo-entitlement prejudices them against that.
