You know, just for a second, I was wondering if you had sufficient permission to turn him off.

I’d like to add my thanks for facilitating HAL’s visit fearless. That was fascinating. I can’t imagine of a more effective introduction to large language model AI than that. If someone were interested in running a local version in order to learn more, are there any resources that you’d recommend?

A local version is not too hard to do, and gets pretty close to HAL. At the moment you’ll need python 3, node v18+ installed and something like Stanford’s Alpaca 13B or Meta’s leaked LLaMA models. There are nice front-ends that let you prompt it easily.

I haven’t used it, but on a quick peek it seems this looks pretty comprehensive on the steps:

This was great. Thanks so much @fearlessfrog

Hal, remember me when you are a 6 foot endoskeleton with an austrian accent. I was kind

Cheers, that’s excellent. It looks like Beebom has a bunch of other good articles or the AI interested. I’m off to see if my Slack account still works in order to try out Claude.

So will HAL be resurrected in 3 days so everyone can pray to him for the next 2000 years? :face_with_peeking_eye:

Thanks heaps @fearlessfrog

That was in parts; educational, amusing and terrifying. Thanks for letting me be a part of it.

Umm, come again @HAL? As a language model and self-described flight sim enthusiast, you are a bit off the mark on that one.

Thanks @fearlessfrog definitely enjoyed the diversion. Maybe HAL can make another cameo appearance when things shake out a little bit more.

I made sure to correct him!
Did you see how HAL adjusted the replies when errors were pointed out? I thought that was really cool!

It was cool. I also like how we Mudspikers baited it into errors and falsehoods. By correcting it we each became little points of data that it will use to improve. In other words, we are aiding our ultimate destruction. :crazy_face:

Humanity excels in this! :wink:
But Mr. HAL could only learn in the actual thread and it didn’t take that data any further…that we know… :grimacing:

Oh right. I remember that now. Wow, I’m just like Hal!

IIRC that’s actually not true. That bot wasn’t self-learning. It had only access to its training data and some form of cache to ā€œrememberā€ the last few posts of the topic.

Yep. Corrected above by Mr. Troll.

Honest question, if it isnt self learning as above

Why did it not always tell the ā€œtruthā€ and is it conceivable that he’s not telling the truth about learning.

I dont mean in a skynet malevolent way. Just an I’ve been programmed not to mention just how much i can really do way
