It always occurred to me that LLMs may be like the language center of the brain. And there should be a "whole damn rest of the brain" behind it to steer it.
LLMs miss very important concepts, like the concept of a fact. There is no "true", just consensus text on the internet given a certain context. Like that study recently where LLMs gave wrong info if there was the biography of a poor person in the context.
And what does it mean to feel sorry? Beyond fallible and imprecise human introspective notion of "sorry", that is. A definition that can span species and computing substrates. A deanthropomorphized definition of "sorry", so to speak.
Ever practiced meditation of the form where you just witness your thoughts? It seems just like LLM generated words, both factual and confabulated nonsense.
thats unlikely. but they are awfully lot like turing machines (k/v cache ~ turing tape) so their architecture is strongly predisposed to be able to find any algorithm, possibly including reasoning
The title is: This ESP32 Antenna Array Can See WiFi
And every time I see something like this I like to remind to myself and imagine what spherical grid of Starlink satellites linked by laser is really capable of instead of mere internet as it is advertised.
There is also another thing where quality Chinese products are very cheap compared to western products. Since Chinese engineers are cheaper, they can live with lower margins on their products.
A roomba was twice as much as a roborock that was better.
Prusa MK4S is 720 EUR, the arguably better Bambu Lab A1 is 260 EUR.
It wasn't labor costs that made the Roomba twice a Roborock, but manufacturing costs. Roomba teardowns basically show that iRobot was just really bad at cost-optimizing their vacuums for mass production.
You can probably maintain your Prusa forever. The Bambu... not so much. It is a philosophy choice here and the 3D printer space is vastly more complex and nuanced for many users than an appliance that has one simple job. Yes if you /just/ want to print stuff and treat it like an appliance as a curious consumer dabbling in the space the Bambu is great. That was never Prusa's target. I don't think the comparison is very strong.
