Hence the “hmmmm.”

Are capybaras docile to humans?

Gosh this is amazing. Subscribed!

I’d be interested in this too.

Yup! Three dots, but the second menu doesn’t have undo either.

It’s gotta be it, man.

I see an identical menu minus the undo. Fail. Oh well.

What phone do you have?

Well fuck me! Mine doesn’t have that. Do you have a Pixel?

Got it. Thanks.

I was referring to the “so unusable” part. But ok.

What makes it unusable?

Such a clickbaity article.

Here’s the meat of it:

Have they finally achieved consciousness and this is how they show it?!

No. The answer, as is usually the case with these things, is that we are anthropomorphizing a step too far. These models don’t care about what is and isn’t random. They don’t know what “randomness” is! They answer this question the same way they answer all the rest: by looking at their training data and repeating what was most often written after a question that looked like “pick a random number.” The more often it appears, the more often the model repeats it.

Except that they don’t think anything at all - they’re just statistics machines, and the author clarified. Clickbaity headline.
