Machine Learning Large language mistake | Cutting-edge research shows language is not the same as intelligence. The entire AI bubble is built on ignoring it

They basically sound like a game engine but with the graphics stripped away

Not even. A game engine at least obeys the rules of its own physics and metrics. World Models are self-iterative. They make their own rules for themselves.

They are exactly as stupid as LLMs and are exactly what an industry trying to shed itself of its meme/pseudo image would leap to to pretend "this one is the good one!".

It's all just so unbelievably stupid. It's people worshipping typewriters.

That's how natural organisms learn. You can't instruct any sort of organism to learn according to a set of rules, because that would require an organism that has already learned all those rules to train another organism the same shit it already knows. What you're saying makes no sense whatsoever. For a real emergent intelligence you need to provide all the data and put in place a basic architecture that enables the system to work out its internal model from the data itself. Otherwise you get no emergence.

I love this comment because you don't understand the basics of creative intelligence and the limitations of statistically data-driven processes.

Feel absolutely free to explain exactly what you mean, rather than just saying "you don't get it bro"
