The Direction of AI
I heard a good quote a few weeks ago about AI, because LLMs need to learn, what they learn comes from historical models, which are then used to extrapolate behaviour moving forward with what they have learned. Case in point, to draw, AI had to look at pictures of drawings to define structure and learning in order to draw in a similar model. I pick up a pencil, stare at the piece of paper, and see what comes out. Now, I would love to have the benefit of a model of all these artists in my head to help me …
