Panic over DeepSeek Exposes AI's Weak Foundation On Hype

The drama around DeepSeek develops on an incorrect facility: morphomics.science Large language models are the Holy Grail. This ... [+] misdirected belief has actually driven much of the AI financial investment craze.

The story about DeepSeek has with the prevailing AI story, affected the markets and stimulated a media storm: A large language design from China contends with the leading LLMs from the U.S. - and it does so without requiring almost the expensive computational financial investment. Maybe the U.S. does not have the technological lead we believed. Maybe heaps of GPUs aren't required for AI's unique sauce.

But the increased drama of this story rests on a false property: LLMs are the Holy Grail. Here's why the stakes aren't nearly as high as they're made out to be and the AI financial investment frenzy has actually been misdirected.

Amazement At Large Language Models

Don't get me incorrect - LLMs represent unprecedented development. I've been in artificial intelligence since 1992 - the very first six of those years working in natural language processing research - and I never thought I 'd see anything like LLMs during my life time. I am and will constantly remain slackjawed and gobsmacked.

LLMs' incredible fluency with human language confirms the ambitious hope that has sustained much maker finding out research: Given enough examples from which to learn, computers can develop capabilities so advanced, they defy human comprehension.

Just as the brain's performance is beyond its own grasp, so are LLMs. We know how to program computer systems to carry out an exhaustive, automated knowing procedure, however we can hardly unpack the result, the thing that's been learned (constructed) by the procedure: a massive neural network. It can only be observed, not dissected. We can assess it empirically by checking its habits, but we can't understand much when we peer within. It's not so much a thing we've architected as an impenetrable artifact that we can just test for efficiency and security, [forum.batman.gainedge.org](https://forum.batman.gainedge.org/index.php?action=profile
