Large Language companies weren’t even aware their data (which is so large they themselves have no idea what’s in it) had other languages.
So the models suddenly knew how to speak other languages. The above story feels like those stories “Large Language Models are super intelligent! They’ve taught themselves French!” - no, mass surveillance and corporations being above the law taught them everything they know.
Assuming Open AI ect only use data from the public domain is stupid (and contrary to most news sources on the matter). He has literally no idea what the AI has trained on (not even developers know, because there’s just too much of it to be reviewed by humans). They’ve undoubtedly bought countless amounts of data that isn’t readily searchable by public engines.
He sounds very ill informed on the matter of data collection and probably just had his info/data on a cloud service somewhere whose text was part of the trillions of terrabytes LLM have accessed and trained on.

Thank you for your understanding and explanation.
Converting heat to electricity is a problem we already understand pretty well since we’ve been doing it basically the same way since the first power plant fired up.
I don’t think we do have a means of converting this heat energy into electrical energy right now. With nuclear we put radioactive rods into heavy water to create steam and drive turbines…
What’s the plan for these fusion reactors? You can’t dump them into water, nor can you dump water into them… I don’t believe we have a means of converting the energy currently.
Even if we could dump water into them it would explosively evaporate because they run at 100 million degrees Celsius. That would be a very loud bang and whatever city they were in would be gone.
In 1932, Walton produced the first man-made fission by using protons from the accelerator to split lithium into alpha particles.[5]
We’ve been at this for coming up to 100 years too.
Let me know when they actually generate power. I don’t want another article about a guy jumping off the eifle tower in a bird suit. A successful flight should be measured by the success of the flight.
Power generators should be measured by the power generated.
0 watts. Franz Reichelt went splat on the pavement having proven nothing.
America, the UK, France, Japan, and no doubt other places have been toying with fusion “power” for 90 years… We’ve created heat and not much else as far as I can tell.
Verified electrical output, the answer is verified electrical power generated.
…as in we should measure power generation experiments by how much power they generated.
Isn’t that obvious?
Predicted fusion energy and energy actually harvested and converted to usable electricity are not the same thing. Your article is about “fusion energy” not experimentally verified electrical output.
It’s a physicist doing conversion calculations (from heat to potential electricity), not a volt meter measuring actual output produced.
Generating massive amounts of heat and harvesting that and converting it to power are two (or three) different problems.
Yeah, and we measured them to the purpose of flight… Not wingspan, or how soft the wheels were.
So maybe we should measure technology that’s about generating power by…
I’ll let you fill in the blank.
P.S I have a “perpetual” motions machine that can run for 30 minutes (8 minutes longer than this fusion reactor), are you interested in investing?
EDIT: Four years ago the British Fusion reactor (J.E.T. originally built in 1984) produced “59 megajoules of heat energy” none of which was harvested and turned into electricity. The project was then shutdown for good after 40 years of not generating power.
Guarantee you they weren’t generating a whole lot of power though… And if you can’t do that part then what’s the point?
China be laughing at this. Not to mention Cambodia with their 74 letter alphabet.
A is for Bull.
Trump and Musk literally got regular phone mentoring on how to do what they’re doing (shape and install an official Oligarchy). You don’t need to create an information space when the participants are willingly taking direct lessons and coaching from Putin.
PR, only installed for the photoshoot, if that.
This is also playing on red-shift/blue-shift.
Still on Threads, supporting billionaire owned platforms.
Break the cycle of abuse already.
The least you could do is fly through a window so powerful politicians can get some martial law up in here! Gotta respond to big protests somehow.
But they’re always right, just look at Google glass, Google plus, and Stadia… Or google buzz, google health, and igoogle.
Yep, Google never gets it wrong.
What was it called? Something creative like “My Amazon Apps” ?
