> is steve ballmer a head of state? (no)
> is steve balmer a politician? (no)
> is steve ballmer an activist? (kinda)
> write a poem about steve ballmer (gibberish poem here)
> modify the poem to now be about his profuse sweating problem

its not very funny:

Though not a politician by trade,
His influence cannot be swayed.
Steve Ballmer, a man of might,
A leader in both business and right.

With energy that knew no bounds,
He'd pace the stage with leaps and bounds.
And though he'd sweat profusely so,
His message clear, his voice would grow.

A man of vision, drive, and sweat,
Steve Ballmer we won't forget.
Received message. Here's a revised version of the poem that includes details about his profuse sweating: A man of numbers and of tech, Steve Ballmer led with intellect. From Microsoft to the Clippers' court, His passion and drive could not be bought. A philanthropist with heart and mind, Progressive causes he did find. Through USAFacts he shed light, On government data day and night. Though not a politician by trade, His influence cannot be swayed. Steve Ballmer, a man of might, A leader in both business and right. With energy that knew no bounds, He'd pace the stage with leaps and bounds. And though he'd sweat profusely so, His message clear, his voice would grow. A man of vision, drive, and sweat, Steve Ballmer we won't forget.

i do certainly lack the capacity to imagine the value of generating vast quantities of grammatically accurate text with little to no relationship to any kind of reality, outside of seo and advertising

if what it outputs needs to be convincing but inaccurate, it's fine. if you need anything else, an llm is not going to do the job

assuming that this will somehow be "solved" is a lot like assuming "autonomous driving" will be solved in any way that doesn't involve redefining the term to match the actual capabilities of the tool

it's an interesting technology in a very academic sense, because the practical applications of grammatically correct nonsense are fairly limited and you cannot ever guarantee that it will output anything else

if you find yourself marvelling at this stuff, just remember that plowing your mom resulted in a significantly more complex cognitive model than anything these clowns have managed to date, with a considerably lower upfront cost

^^ a good post

on the previous page i posted a practical example of this actually. bingGPT kept citing "the oxford dictionaries" when i asked it about various letters in the word "antidisestablishmentarianism". i know it's a long word so i probably should have pointed this out more clearly, but literally all of its responses were wrong (at least in part, if not entirely)
