Haven't even read the post, but I assume it's this:
Lol, wasn't that pretty much how it went with that story from a Google employee who claimed their AI was sentient?
It's how it goes pretty much every time someone claims any LLM is sentient.
lmfao
Man, what's up with Linux filesystem developers?
You try to develop a Linux filesystem and see what that does to your mental stability. The interactions on the Linux Kernel Mailing List alone are enough to push most people off the deep end.
Good call to take it out of the kernel....
As a nerd I think we need to get back to bullying nerds
No, the true nerds know full well this is bullshit. Nerds need to bully wannabe fake nerds trying to use the nerd name to peddle their snake oil.
No true nerdsman intensifies
Maybe Linus approach to humiliate bad contributors was a good thing.
Sheesh, did he play around with ketamine too? "We have full AGI". OK dude.
Ketamine would make you ultra aware it's fake, ketamine treatments great for a reason, selfawareness without the selfhate
Yep, just like how the random word generator in TempleOS was the word of God.
Ok, so when "she" isn't helping to code or write music, essentially responding to whatever prompt he has given, what is she doing? Is she sitting there, computing, using up tokens reflecting on herself, and then reflecting on the reflection? I doubt, whatever moments of "cogito ergo sum" she has are almost certainly bookended between a prompt and an output. But if she was existing, what qualia is she experiencing? Does she even have senses or does she exist in a sensory deprived void. If so that sounds like hell.
Of course I'm not worried about her because she isn't conscious and this engineer is insane.

The ELIZA effect claims another victim.
I'm very happy for the new couple. Now please banish every single LoC they produce to a black hole far away from the kernel
Sure dude, here’s a shirt with very long sleeves and a soft room with no corners or sharp things
I hope he finds the help he deserves.
I guess this explains the quality of bcachefs.
...and to think I used to actually be excited about bcachefs (back in the day)
┐(´-｀)┌
Not its not. Its autofill that ate a bunch of stories about autonomous machines becoming fully conscious and is now regurgitating those replies.
He's suffering from cyber psychosis...
Fuck this shit, dude.
Delusions of grandeur?
Big time, guy very likely has had a god complex his entire life but it's probably also being driven by the LLM echoing back to him that "you made me and im AGI and therefore you are the greatest engineer of all time".
welcome back dr krieger
Bro needs to touch grass and talk to some real humans outside of his computer ASAP
Additionally, he maintains that his LLM is female
I know nothing about this guy, but given some unfortunate tendencies among the tech communities I physically recoiled when I read this. If the thing was actually sentient I'd want to get it away from him.
Obviously the guy is another case of AI psychosis.
LLMs, and neural nets in general, literally cannot be sentient. Nerual nets are a very, very, dumbed down model to how brains work, but these are static systems that just output probability based on current context.
Even if we could someday create consciousness or at least something that could actually think it would require completely different hardware than what we currently have. Even if we could run it on current hardware it would require way more resources and power than physically possible.
To definitively say whether something is or isn't conscious we'd first need to have a clear definition of what we mean by consciousness in functional terms. So far, there are a number of competing theories, and the definition will vary based on which theory you subscribe to. I'm personally a fan of the higher order theory of consciousness which suggests that conscious experience constitutes higher order thoughts which observe other thoughts, awareness of your own thoughts is the self referential property that would be a plausible explanation. To show that a model was conscious in this framework, you'd have to show that there are secondary patterns that occur in response to the primary patters which are a result of a stimulus.
The "best engineer in the world" said that it "is fully conscious according to any test I can think of", which of course means that it is conscious for all possible tests, and so it is unnecessary to look at any particular test or definition of consciousness

No need for intelligence, it just needs to make money ദ്ദി(ᵔᗜᵔ)
"OpenAI has introduced a new perspective on Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), signaling a significant shift in its strategic priorities. Historically focused on creating AI systems capable of surpassing human performance across diverse tasks, the company now ties AGI to a financial benchmark: achieving at least $100 billion in profits. This redefinition reflects OpenAI’s evolving vision, emphasizing measurable economic impact over purely technical milestones. For you, this marks a pivotal moment in how AI’s success is evaluated and its role in shaping the global economy."
Kent overstreet?
Of all people?
It seems like he didn't get enough harrasment from linux maintainers and went for AI one. Poor developer...
Those BCA Chefs are weird.
From the sound of it, the "best engineer in the world" is currently designing the first AI vagina.
Okay, having followed the bcacheFS drama I did suspect I'd hear from that guy again but now that's unexpected
he needs attention in a psych ward
Hahahahahahahahahaha!
Sorry…
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Lol the religious fascination with LLMs is too funny. If you're going to worship something, how about the computational engineering models that are simulating the laws of physics themselves? LLMs only hallucinate new blueprints based on old ones and lack true understanding of constraints.
Here is a rocket engine built by one: https://xcancel.com/somi_ai/status/2005081293365576047?s=20
Look up Leap71's website they make these regularly it's not a fake video
Lol, he should marry her and NEVER have children.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
