I suspect that much of this is because we prefer to have simple unambiguous answers. They require less cognitive effort and […]
What a long strange trip its been
I have realized that I have not been using this forum effectively to talk about my work. My recent posts are all about AI: Epistemic Honesty Revisited: Worse Than I FearedEpistemic Honesty: An Unusual Commodity for Large Language ModelsThe Risks of Using Gemini Code So, I decided to catch up here. PhD Research I spent […]
Epistemic Honesty: An Unusual Commodity for Large Language Models
I asked 290 LLMs to summarize a paper that has never existed. 62% of them confidently did. Recently Hiroko Konishi posted on X and wrote a report “Structural Inducements for Hallucination in LargeLanguage Models: An Output-Only Case Study and the Discovery of the False-Correction Loop” that has garnered significant attention. For me, it was like […]

I’ve been exploring using various AI coding agents over the past year. They generally work by using an API key, which charges per million tokens. That might sound like a lot, but keep in mind that the way LLMs function is by appending messages to all that’s gone before, so the length increases as the […]

In all of the discussions of AI with which I’m bombarded daily, I haven’t seen anyone talk about […]
