Grok (Expert) is useful for filtering search engine slop into a summary with relevant, sourced, checkable web links
Neither of these necessarily produce The Truth, but in this example, Grok generates significantly more reliable output when precision matters. As time goes on and the volume of hallucinated nonsense on the Web mounts higher, Grok's ability to attribute its assertions t…

@hex@kolektiva.social

I was just thinking about how the fact that #Musk named his AI "Grok" is evidence that he "reads sci-fi" in the same way he "plays video games." Like, he claims to do it but when it comes time to show the evidence it's clear he does not actually "grok" it.
Like... To grok something is to have a layer deeper than simply knowledge, but mathematically encoding statistical relationships between words is pretty obviously not even understanding much less qualifying as "groking" it. In the book, the ability to grok something is also the ability to annihilate that thing with a thought. Just pretending that an LLM actually *was* something that could become AGI (which it's not), this name would imply the AI would have the power to annihilate reality. That's bad. That's a bad name for an AI.
And why would a greedy fascist name something of his after something an anarchist communist space Jesus taught to the hippie cult he started? There are so many layers of facepalm to this. It's some kind of php-esque fractal of incompetence.
Like, there's no reason to talk about this but my brain does this to me sometimes and now it's your problem.

I think I'm making progress on the bottom-of-column logic.
I've traced out a bunch, but I don't grok.
There's a bunch of control signals running the full height from bottom to top which makes tracing stuff out a bit painful.
The circuit that I thought was the column mux itself seems straightforward, just eight pass transistors that connect the drain-side bitlines to a common 8-bit bus on metal 2 running the full width of the array.
But then there's…

I know it's hopelessly naive of me (and it's going to go over like a lead balloon on here), but I often think that AI can kind of reset the scales on Brandolini's law.
You see some of this dynamic with Grok already, where despite Musk's best efforts, the poor bot just keeps outputting consensus reality.
What's more, the hardcore X crowd is more than happy to ask Grok to fact check any single tweet. There is real appetite for a quick, automated fact checker.

If #Musk 🏴‍☠️ were a guy from the lower middle class with an average income and net worth, he would have been committed to a psychiatric ward long ago.
But since he is the richest person in the world (which doesn't really mean much, but enough to cause damage), even a sociopath like Musk is tolerated—even though he has already caused enormous damage and that is probably not the end of it.
