Grandiose delusions from a ketamine-rotted brain.

I wonder how many papers he's read since ChatGPT released about how bad it is to train AI on AI output.

Spoiler: He's gonna fix the "missing" information with MISinformation.

"and then on retrain on that"

Thats called model collapse.

So just making shit up.

So they’re just going to fill it with Hitler’s world view, got it.

Typical and expected.

“Deleting Errors” should sound alarm bells in your head.

[My] translation: "I want to rewrite history to what I want".

Lol turns out elon has no fucking idea about how llms work

He's been frustrated by the fact that he can't make Wikipedia 'tell the truth' for years. This will be his attempt to replace it.

The thing that annoys me most is that there have been studies done on LLMs where, when trained on subsets of output, it produces increasingly noisier output.

Sources (unordered):

• What is model collapse?
• AI models collapse when trained on recursively generated data
• Large Language Models Suffer From Their Own Output: An Analysis of the Self-Consuming Training Loop
• Collapse of Self-trained Language Models

Whatever nonsense Muskrat is spewing, it is factually incorrect. He won't be able to successfully retrain any model on generated content. At least, not an LLM if he wants a successful product. If anything, he will be producing a model that is heavily trained on censored datasets.

Elon Musk, like most pseudo intellectuals, has a very shallow understanding of things. Human knowledge is full of holes, and they cannot simply be resolved through logic, which Mush the dweeb imagines.

Isn't everyone just sick of his bullshit though?

adding missing information and deleting errors

Which is to say, "I'm sick of Grok accurately portraying me as an evil dipshit, so I'm going to feed it a bunch of right-wing talking points and get rid of anything that hurts my feelings."

"If we take this 0.84 accuracy model and train another 0.84 accuracy model on it that will make it a 1.68 accuracy model!"

~Fucking Dumbass

Huh. I'm not sure if he's understood the alignment problem quite right.

I never would have thought it possible that a person could be so full of themselves to say something like that

"We'll fix the knowledge base by adding missing information and deleting errors - which only an AI trained on the fixed knowledge base could do."

Whatever. The next generation will have to learn to trust whether the material is true or not by using sources like Wikipedia or books by well-regarded authors.

The other thing that he doesn't understand (and most "AI" advocates don't either) is that LLMs have nothing to do with facts or information. They're just probabilistic models that pick the next word(s) based on context. Anyone trying to address the facts and information produced by these models is completely missing the point.

Delusional and grasping for attention.

which has advanced reasoning

No it doesn't.

Yes please do that Elon, please poison grok with garbage until full model collapse.

The plan to "rewrite the entire corpus of human knowledge" with AI sounds impressive until you realize LLMs are just pattern-matching systems that remix existing text. They can't create genuinely new knowledge or identify "missing information" that wasn't already in their training data.

What the fuck? This is so unhinged. Genuine question, is he actually this dumb or he's just saying complete bullshit to boost stock prices?

Yes! We should all wholeheartedly support this GREAT INNOVATION! There is NOTHING THAT COULD GO WRONG, so this will be an excellent step to PERMANENTLY PERFECT this WONDERFUL AI.

So where will Musk find that missing information and how will he detect "errors"?

Fuck Elon Musk

Is he still carrying his little human shield around with him everywhere or can someone Luigi this fucker already?

I elaborated below, but basically Musk has no idea WTF he’s talking about.

If I had his “f you” money, I’d at least try a diffusion or bitnet model (and open the weights for others to improve on), and probably 100 other papers I consider low hanging fruit, before this absolutely dumb boomer take.

He’s such an idiot know it all. It’s so painful whenever he ventures into a field you sorta know.

But he might just be shouting nonsense on Twitter while X employees actually do something different. Because if they take his orders verbatim they’re going to get crap models, even with all the stupid brute force they have.

Because neural networks aren't known to suffer from model collapse when using their output as training data. /s

Most billionaires are mediocre sociopaths but Elon Musk takes it to the "Emperors New Clothes" levels of intellectual destitution.

I read about this in a popular book by some guy named Orwell

Dude is gonna spend Manhattan Project level money making another stupid fucking shitbot. Trained on regurgitated AI Slop.

Glorious.

I remember when I learned what corpus meant too

adding missing information

Did you mean: hallucinate on purpose?

Wasn't he going to lay off the ketamine for a while?

Edit: ... i hadnt seen the More Context and now i need a fucking beer or twnety fffffffffu-

Training an AI model on AI output? Isn't that like the one big no-no?

Elon should seriously see a medical professional.

How high on ketamine is he?

3.5 (maybe we should call it 4)

I think calling it 3.5 might already be too optimistic
