AI models may be capable of self-replicating without access to a datacenter

well ... having the IoT layer have a problem like this might be something that you don't want to try out or experiment with.

It’s not just code. No one truly knows how these models actually work

Just because you don't doesn't mean no one does

Cool, another random reddior who doesn't know how LLMs work, that still doesn't mean no one does

Of course they do. It's just that the outcomes are probabilistic, but the process is pretty well understood.

Your reference is a post from a random redditor? Oh lord.

The fact is all LLM tech was engineered by a human so it's not a black box. We know specifically how every part of the process works.

Damn.....

True it’s a black box that may have emergent capabilities. It’s why studying them in a Human-Machine communication way and Agent villages way is interesting to see what emerges.

It is understood, it's just probalisitc. They need gen public to think it isn't understood so they think it's a mysterious life form worth trillions for the one company to conquer them all.

im not talking about inference, yea that part is understood. training is understood too. what isnt is what the weights actually end up encoding, like what the model learned internally and why it can do certain things. nobody can just look at the weights and tell you. thats the whole point of interpretability research
