I never took what you wrote to mean that, but I am deeply skeptical that they can successfully elminiate hallucinations to the point that "AI" can be trusted to given correct results.
Why bring up power and environmental cost? What did that have to do with anything?
Also if you’ll re-read what I wrote I used careful language to indicate I didn’t think this method would completely eliminate errors. Nevermind bridge the gap to “trusted.” (🤮 I will never trust AI.)
(Yeah I know the YouTuber used a sensational title; in their defense they kind of have to in order to get clicks. imho blame the algorithm and people’s reinforcement of that algorithm.)
Why wouldn't I? It's pretty fucking important! Why would you take exception to that? I also think it's weird you assumed what conclusion I was jumping to.
I didn’t have to assume anything. You stated it outright. I didn’t bring up a straw man argument.
