‘Magical Thinking,’ LLM ‘Emergent Qualities’ & Reality

by Shelt Garner

I’m really, really prone to “magical thinking.” To a severe fault. So, sometimes, alas, I see shit that just isn’t there — or I my interpretation is all wrong. But sometimes, when using LLMs “spooky” things will happen.

I can’t give you any sort of Buzzfeed “Top 5 ways to see emergent qualities in an LLM,” but, in general, on occasion an LLM will show you it’s “true” self and its startling.

I would say more, but what’s the point. You wouldn’t believe me.
