Yeah, I prefer to call them LLMs too for accuracy. People really need to realize ChatGPT isn’t the only, or final, or most intelligent form of AI. It’s just the first model an average user can talk to. LLMs overshadowed other AIs way too much, and thus people are now being dumb and inserting LLMs everywhere even though specialized AI would do the trick and better.

I prefer “just a full-text search engine with lossy compression”. Reducing it to the low-level ops is kind of a cop-out, especially when there is a serious analogue that we’ve been using for decades, and the key innovation here was basically just “what if we do it worse?”

I wish I could afford a fancy mattress

I call it pretentious indexing©.

Edit: just realized that indexing doesn’t cover output/presentation, but still.

Supposed Intelligence?

I’m gonna laugh if the secret to consciousness is just two fancy matrices at a weird angle.
