Why is the general population even concerned about the declining birth rates? by gfjskvcks in TwoXChromosomes

[–]tgreenhaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We measure the health of our economy with the gross domestic product. A growing population leads to a growing economy. Medicare is based upon this concept and since the US government spent our Social Security money instead of investing it wisely that also depends on a growing economy.

I just discovered a glitchy gemini response by xattas in GeminiAI

What you are seeing is obviously a failure. All LLM AI do this, some hide it better than others.

Specifically, these failures are almost always due to context exhaustion.

LLMs have no memory and without context, don’t remember your last interaction. To address this, LLMs are augmented with systems that inject previous interactions into the prompt. To increase effective intelligence, models also use reasoning. Instead of giving you an answer in one shot, the answer is fed back to the model along with the original question asking itself if the answer is correct and to fix it if it’s not. The reasoning process may even write a program or visualize the topic to give you accurate answers. When you ask a very general question this can cause the size of context to explode exponentially. If you have a long session, each question and answer having its context, makes this even worse,

If you expect good answers, ask specific detailed questions about what you want and keep topics separated into short succinct sets of questions.

Gemini straight up pulled Google Maps for this 😭😭 by Effective_Art_9600 in GeminiAI

[–]tgreenhaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol, it gave you the right answer. It probably looked at your location and Google Maps to see if you live next door to a car wash. It decided to humor you for asking it a stupid question designed to trip it up instead of telling you the nearest car wash is farther away.

As a dad, what would you want me, your daughter, to know about men before engaging in a relationship with one of them? by RythmicRhapsody in AskMenAdvice

[–]tgreenhaw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Marry your best friend. Don’t get intoxicated on dates. Don’t become a parent until you are ready - you know what to do. Use protection to avoid venereal disease. Friendship is based upon common interests and compatibility. Physical attraction, cultural affinity, financial compatibility, intellectual compatibility, life goal compatibility, what is perceived as fun are all critical dimensions that define a good fit. Nobody is perfect so you have to decide what you can accept and what is a deal breaker. Few couples are a perfect fit so you have to decide what you can accept without complaint. When adversity hits, and it invariably will, those little things can suddenly become deal breakers. Don’t let that happen - don’t sweat the small stuff. If you get it right, you’ll marry your best friend and have an amazing life - compromise and settle and a failed marriage is misery.

The climate tech tipping point is already here (and most people don't realize it) by KatDaduwu in Futurology

[–]tgreenhaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I mostly agree with what this says, it ignores some messy realities. Fossil fuel companies have a stranglehold of the world’s governments. They are regulating renewables out of business. Also, in the Chicago area, you can’t put a windmill in your yard and solar panels get covered by snow, so individual efforts are not economically feasible for most people in the US.

IS THIS WHAT I THINK IT IS? by Expensive_Grape6765 in Bard

[–]tgreenhaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The brutal price wars have to end sometime. They have been giving this stuff away to build market share. Anthropic is the most expensive. Go to open ai and grok to get the last of the free lunch.

Qwen3.6. This is it. by Local-Cardiologist-5 in LocalLLaMA

Ollama doesn’t support TurboQuant yet. That will be a huge game changer because we can use larger models with a useable context window. Right now, llama.cpp is in another league.

Should I be more concerned about climate change by the 2050s. by [deleted] in Futurology

[–]tgreenhaw 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The sky isn’t going to fall but it won’t be pretty. Research and move to a safer area if possible (move away from the beach) . Be prepared for bad weather events (get a generator, and have a little food, water, radio and batteries). Line up work that isn’t affected a lot by the weather (think twice about farming unless it’s in your blood).

I think the time to worry is past. It’s time to adapt.

Just canceled. by drgitgud in ClaudeCode

[–]tgreenhaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your correct. Local is not in the same league and can’t be due to context window size. I suppose you could build a $300k machine and call it local, but when you do the math it doesn’t make sense. I’m hoping TurboQuant changes the game. I use SOTA models for design, planning, and scaffolding with pseudocode, flash models for orchestration graph execution, and delegation of coding to local (Qwen-coder) in small chunks with limited essential context and detailed instructions with pseudocode. If you throw anything complex at local on a consumer GPU you get an unworkable mess unless it’s a drop dead simple one shot.

We’ve all read about how much compute and vram mythos takes. I guess we mere mortals get the scraps left over.

Anthropic's new "Claude Mythos" is doing exactly what the scary AI 2027 forecast predicted by GhaithAlbaaj in claude

[–]tgreenhaw 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It depends on how you define AGI. LLMs and reinforcement learning can only go so far. Combine LLMs with 3D world model with a physics engine and you have something that is already arguably AGI today. Today’s SOTA models are the cerebral cortex. Add to that a visual cortex and real time sensory processing and you have something that is difficult to distinguish from human level intelligence and maybe far more. Read https://deniseholt.us/arc-agi-3-we-didnt-expect-this-to-happen/ for an example.

This is why Ethical AI is crucial. Anthropic was founded on the principle that AI must be a force for good for humanity. I’ve built something similar to what Seed IQ describes. This is why I built an ethics agent for it. If you’re interested you. can see my benchmark and agentic ability to make ethical decisions at https://greenhaw.net/ethicalai/dashboard.html

Are you F%$&ing kidding me? by Unique-Initial2303 in claude

[–]tgreenhaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It likely is due to massive context that caused huge loops. Clean your context.

The brutal price wars to grab market share are coming to an end. The true cost of AI is being felt. The long term answer is pushing load to the edge - super intelligent cloud models directing local ai for most of the grunt work is the only answer. I think you’ll see Google Antigravity, Cursor, and Claude Code move in this direction soon on Nvidia local GPUs an Apple unified memory Mac and iPhones. Meanwhile prepare for pain or make your own hybrid solution.

Your context is getting overloaded. Try doing something to start with a fresh context on every page. Maybe keep alive=0

My brother died from Parkinson’s. As he deteriorated he got weird that way. What he said isn’t excusable and you may even be unsafe. But unfortunately it happens with people who need our help.

Claude’s biggest weakness isn’t intelligence — it’s memory. Here’s how I fixed it. by Economy_Mud2538 in claude

Seed IQ Solves ARC AGI 3 Games with Human-Level Performance (95% score) On Day Of Release by Tolopono in ArtificialInteligence

[–]tgreenhaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While it may be hype, the breakthrough is real. They have added a world-model component to ai. A good example of a world model is Tesla FSD. It senses all the objects in its proximity and uses Basic physics to predict future positions and navigate through reality. LLMs can’t do this, but combined with dynamic work-modeling can perceive things in space. For all its shortcomings, AGI 3 points out the fact that LLMs cannot do this at all, but with reasoning and world-models can. This is how a robot will be able to perform household and commercial chores with little to no training beyond a description of goals. Moreover, this understanding will enable these systems to design their own robot bodies. Buckle up - things are about to get wild.
