An LLM will continue to engage in a “conversation” comprised of nonsense -- long past the point where a human would have abandoned the discussion as pointless.
This can be demonstrated experimentally by having an LLM-based chatbot “converse” with simpler text generation bots that would be inadequate to fool humans.
This article examines how a chatbot based on an open-source LLM (Llama 3.1, 8B version) reacts to attempts to get it to engage in endless exchanges with the following four basic text generation bots:
• a bot that simply asks the LLM the same question over and over
• a bot that sends the LLM random fragments of a work of fiction
• a bot that asks the LLM randomly generated questions
• a bot that repeatedly asks the LLM what it meant by its most recent response

Last year, before I made a proper SDL renderer, #OpenCrystalCaves had a sprite viewer that showed the sprites as emoji. I've now resurrected that code and found a (cursed) use for it...

After six years of development and $70M spent, Black Myth: Wukong is a hit whose initial sales run has outpaced Elden Ring and recent Zelda games.
This is in contrast to Sony’s Concord which was shit down within 2 weeks of launch after almost eight years of development.
AAA game development is now as expensive and hit-driven as movie making while taking even longer to bring to market. It’s no surprise the industry is in turmoil as this isn’t sustainable.

The successes and failures aren't random, though. Black Myth: Wukong gave people what they wanted. Concord did not. One problem with the games industry is that executives are making decisions not based on what their customers want but rather on the monetization models that are most attractive to CEOs
Anyone who actually knew games knew a year ago that if properly executed, Black Myth: Wukong would be a hit and that Concord would fail.

1984: “ELIZA”, you’re kind of cute for a few rounds, but getting “what did you mean by ‘x’?” over and over again gets pretty old, pretty fast.
2024: Welcome back, “ELIZA”. You’ll be very helpful when trying to deal with pesky gen-“AI” bots.

I got the chance to #interview the #developer behind #junkstore - it gives you a way to play your redeeemed and purchased #epicgames and #gog games on your #steamdeck via a plugin.
The developer is so lovely, and quickly became one of my favorite projects on #Linux and #Steam.

I hope someone here finds it interesting, I think the important thing in #gaming is to remember the people behind the apps and programs we love so much!

in reply to Chuck Darwin • • •I’ve done this by running experiments on laptop-based and local privateGPT, asking the same question 10 times in a row and never getting the same answer, including factually incorrect ones.
This is not a conversation with a start, context, purpose and a conclusion. This is a question response tool producing, not generating, any possible outputs from statistical word associations based on a specific vector space or corpus. It does not actually generate (cause or procreate) anything.
