The Illusion of Thinking: Understanding the Strengths and Limitations of Reasoning Models via the Lens of Problem Complexity

"Conspiracy thinking is also a trap because it contains feedback loops of positive reinforcement. If you reject authoritative sources of information as part of a conspiracy, then you will likely reject any information that can disprove the conspiracy. Any information that contradicts the conspiracy, or lack of information that would prove the conspiracy, are part of the conspiracy."

Many of the activists have since taken to social media claiming they were beaten, had their passports stolen, and are now stranded in Egypt. Several are pleading online for help from their embassies. One Egyptian pundit remarked: “There’s a reason Egypt has a huge wall and doesn’t let any Gazans in. What made these people think they could just ‘march to Gaza’ via Egypt?” Egyptian authorities have yet to issue an official statement."

Gıdaları mümkün olduğunca kooperatiflerden almaya çalışıyorum. Ama bazen kendimi enayi yerine koyulmuş hissediyorum. Çaykur'un 25 tanesini 40 liraya sattığı çayın 20 tanesini 50 liraya satıyor Özçay. Neden anlamıyorum. Aracı yok tefeci yok, belediyenin üretici marketinde satıyorsun.

Und hier haben wir es: eine logisch-semantische Injektion: unmarkierte Modifikationen der Funktionsweise von LLMs, die unser Denken nudgen und damit unsere logisch-semantische Souveränität untergraben: https://toot.cafe/@baldur/113934035009657696
