I don't agree with your major hypothesis. I don't think intelligence is required to deceive in the sense the paper you referenced is...

This is going to have me chuckling for at least a couple days. 😂

Oops, sorry, I thought you were @gleem I was just being a troublemaker. I don’t think Helen Keller’s mental state is at all relevant...

I think that was an initial thought about the problem, but ... ... more sophisticated models with more training data have actually been...

I thought we did know why they hallucinate? My understanding: They don't store the training data, they store statistics about the...

I think this may be too strong a statement. We certainly can say that we know all of the weights in a trained deep neural network. And...
