For those not in the know:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_room

Very first words:

The Chinese room argument holds that a computer executing a program cannot have a mind, understanding, or consciousness,[a] regardless of how intelligently or human-like the program may make the computer behave.

You just have to type "what is a" before that and it pops up. I don't think the llm is choosing not to show us what it is. If it actually did, it wouldn't be as much of a Chinese room as we think, although I guess it could emulate deception just as well as anything else (as in the blackmail thing from a while back).

    The LLM cannot do things that are not in its model.

    Which is why its actually bullshit to call any of it AI because a fancy pattern recognition algorithm with a search index behind it doesnt mean Artificial intelligence.

    Yup, I either call them LLMs or "AI" Marketing departments have utterly embraced it because everyone, myself included, thinks of science fiction AI and they are so not.

    A fun thing I've noticed is that for image gen ones, they threw in so much gundam and warhammer 40k art that getting things outside of those when you ask for a "mech" is surprisingly difficult.

    Its really surprising that Games Workshop hasnt done anything on that.
