    An LLM cannot think like you and I. it’s not able to solve entirely new problems. And it doesn’t have a concept of the world - it paints hands without knowing what a hand does.

    It is a system which learns the rules of something by means of reinforcement learning to tune the coefficients of its heap of linear equations. It is better than a human in its area. I guess it can be good for tedious, repetitive tasks. Nevertheless it is just a huge coefficient matrix.

    But it can only reproduce what is in the training data - you need lots of already solved examples in the training data. It doesn’t work for entirely new problems.

    (that’s also the reason, why LLMs don’t give good answers to questions about specialized niche topics. When there are just one or two studies, there just isn’t enough training data for the LLM.)




  • Main: primary provider. Use the volume tariff as a backup when the primary provider isn’t usable.

    It’s about access to NNTP servers (Usenet). The thing that was used before forums, reddit, Lemmy. But not like irc, matrix or telegram. You can write text messages and reply to them. And you can attach binary data like archives, pictures or videos (bulk data) to your messages - this is the interesting part here.

    To access the server you need a NNTP capable client. I.e. thunderbird - which is not especially suitable for down- or uploading binary data.

    For binary downloads you could look into the arr suite (Google it and you will find wikis and related discussion groups). Nzbget, sabnzbd… I don’t know any details, until now I was too lazy to dive into that timesink.
