    Yeah, no difference between real-life physical measurements & data calculations made from proven formulas, and random shit collected of random places on the internet (even, possibly, random “LLM” generated sentences).

    People do “just go off the output”. There are people like that in this very thread.

    Statements like “no difference” are just idiotic.

      Of course there is. But weather forecasting have also gotten ridiculously much more accurate with time. Better data, better models. We’ll get there with language models as well.

      I’m not arguing language models of today are amazingly accurate, I’m arguing they can be. That they are statistical models is not the problem. That they are new statistical models are.

        A broken clock is accurate twice in a day.

        I’m arguing that they will never be accurate, because accuracy is not possible. I mean, look at Wikipedia. At least it’s written by people.

        Full self driving next year, right?
