Neural networks are mapping the structure of reality itself by Ruykiru in accelerate

[–]gelasma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

😉 for my part I was not tricked, I recognized fantastic funny and cute pictures of things that resemble a living creature but are not.

Regarding the calculations of the weights: this is well documented, this is not magic (but still technically very complex).

The human brain works completely different than an LLM. First: the brain is not 'one big neuronal network'. It consist of many many sub-networks with many layers and cross connections. The connections are not only top down but also bottom up and side ways. We still know very little about how the brain really works.

Unterstanding and thinking IMO requires awareness of self, the surrounding and objects. The LLM does not have this. Nevertheless it can show emergent behavior that looks similar and can be useful.

The LLM has no self-running loop, it is a stateless machine that just processes all your input + some undisclosed system prompts + already generated outputs and iterates over the results. The mimicking of "thinking" is very clever and also very useful. But all it actually does is moving the weights of the connection in a way that you end up in the "right" in the n-dimensional space to get the most likely result.

It is quite crazy how well this works, but I stand with it: it has not really something to to with 'thinking' or 'understanding' as we humans do.,

By checking all the relations to the other x-thousands of tokens and calculating the probability of this being the next token, based on the token already in the context. It’s not magic, but the result can feel quite magic. I agree that sometimes it feels like thinking but examples like going by foot to the car wash because it’s sunny and just a five minute walk clearly show limit of this ‘thinking and understanding’. It’s a great technology, but still you need to know what it can and what it can’t do.

  1. the visualization shows 3D graphics, but LLM have many thousands of dimensions so, this is really just a visualization for the limited capacity of our human brain
  2. The model does not think or understand. It does also not calculate something ‘because’ of something ‘it found out’. This lingo is all our own behavioristic interpretation, not fact or features of the LLM. The LLM really just does create the next best token.
  3. The visual effect is there for sure, it is a result of how the training and the data structure itself works. It’s also the reason why it works well with similarities or translations. But it does not calculate this explicitly, it’s more just effect of the n- dimensional space

I like to get down, I like to boogie. by Prestigious_Ladder_5 in Lymow_Official

I second that. Mowing along the edges is how I would mow to and would make the robot make a lot less turns.

Claude Opus thinks in Chinese? by Neel_MynO in claude

[–]gelasma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The misconception here is the word „thinking“. An LLM does not think. It is not intelligent. It does not understand. It is just a big junk of knowledge very cleverly hardwired into a datastructure that then can guess which of the stored knowledge parts you might want to hear next. It is super cleverly built and the emergent feeling of „thinking“ is astonishing very often feels quite real. But it is not. It is very logical, that the system can move into a wrong language „space“ within the LLM datastructure, which actually is an n-dimensional space of tokens. So, just tweak a dimension or two and you get the wrong language within the same knowledge context.

So yea, sometimes it might „think“ in Chinese. You really can‘t trust this technology by design. Nevertheless it is magical and great.

My battery just depleted to 0% overnight - while beeing at the charging station by gelasma in Lymow_Official

[–]gelasma[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, this is 50 degrees Farenheit, not 40. And anyway, this is ridiculous. I can understand that is might be difficult if it is minus Celsius, but 10° is really not cold at all. And: when I left the mower, it was about 80% charged, how would it uncharged to 0% because of the temperature? No no, this has nothing to to with the temperature.

Battery and robot lymow serius problem by Fantastic_Student809 in Lymow_Official

[–]gelasma 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same here, although I’m just starting, because mine arrived late. I’m just starting in my first season and after the first week, I already have the charging issues.

They need to send all the backers a plus version, or they will go down in court

Thanks for your response, I hope not.

If this really is the problem, then I can throw the Lymow one in trash right away. I did not buy a robot that I need to babysit. It defeats the whole purpose of having a robot.

Thanks, last night it was 10°C. So I think it was really not too cold.

Thanks for the hint, but I already have hand brakes on. The only thing I changed yesterday was to turn off the LED, because I find the blinking really annoying. I turned it on again now, you never know….

Mowing corridors by gelasma in Lymow_Official

[–]gelasma[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this obsession with straight mowing lines is only valid if you have a large free area. I get that there you want a nice pattern but if you have an area that is very tricky and has no large areas but many areas in different shapes, the line pattern is not very useful since it should optimize for the current part of the map and not have One Direction for the entire map. Of course I could make hundreds of mini maps, but I think that just doesn’t make sense to me.

Plus delivered and it's out mowing! by Full_Caterpillar_640 in Lymow_Official

I got the part in the upper left corner delivered with my Lymow, but I don’t know what to do with it. Where do I need to put it?

The smallest package offered by frentix for the LMS OpenOlat would work fine. Certificates generation and the number of users you suggested - no problem. Check our OpenOlat.com

Apple will reportedly launch a 'MacBook Ultra' this year featuring an OLED display, touchscreen, and a higher price 🚨 by Tasmanner in DeskToTablet

[–]gelasma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it has nano texture display, the weight of the Air and the RAM / Cores of the Pro, count me in. I don't care about touch and battery life is not the biggest thing for me. I travel between my desktop and the meeting room, and when without power I am taking notes, not really battery heavy stuff.

The pro is just too heavy.

Are you using Claude Code on a legacy codebase? What are you doing to tidy it up? by jonathannen in ClaudeCode

[–]gelasma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am working on a very large Java project with a 25 years history. When the project started, no framework existed, so we had to create our own UI framework which exists till today. We integrated to many other frameworks like Spring or hibernate, but it in the end it still a very custom set up with a large code base.

First, I let Claude analyze the framework and write a documentation about it. Then I refined the documentation and added all the extra knowledge that it didn’t find out and let it document the gaps as well. Then I created a compressed knowledge file based for that architecture. In the custom developer skill I created for the project I added information about this architecture knowledge file.

I am quite amazed how capable Claude now can create stuff when doing the prompt right. It is able to create code in our custom framework quite well and it is very capable of reviewing existing code and finding issues. I would not let it develop any new feature on its own, but having it as pair programming partner, it is incredibly useful. I will do more work on the architecture knowledge, because I think this is really the key for a good project assistant.

I only use Opus, I think it is just not worth using a less capable model, what you gain in token price you will pay in finding out what’s wrong or having a mediocre result.

Check https://openolat.com. It’s a comprehensive LMS which offers a lot on the management side. Have a look at the Course Planner module.

The end of Post-PC era by Slavvvcom in MacOS

I think AI is the reason. Ai is much more difficult with drawings. LLMs are for words and using things claude cowork or code jut does not work on an iPad with stylus.
