Welcome to LocalLLaMA! Here we discuss running and developing machine learning models at home. Lets explore cutting edge open source neural network technology together.
Get support from the community! Ask questions, share prompts, discuss benchmarks, get hyped at the latest and greatest model releases! Enjoy talking about our awesome hobby.
As ambassadors of the self-hosting machine learning community, we strive to support each other and share our enthusiasm in a positive constructive way.
Rules:
Rule 1 - No harassment or personal character attacks of community members. I.E no namecalling, no generalizing entire groups of people that make up our community, no baseless personal insults.
Rule 2 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning models to cryptocurrency. I.E no comparing the usefulness of models to that of NFTs, no comparing the resource usage required to train a model is anything close to maintaining a blockchain/ mining for crypto, no implying its just a fad/bubble that will leave people with nothing of value when it burst.
Rule 3 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning to simple text prediction algorithms. I.E statements such as "llms are basically just simple text predictions like what your phone keyboard autocorrect uses, and they're still using the same algorithms since <over 10 years ago>.
Rule 4 - No implying that models are devoid of purpose or potential for enriching peoples lives.

Good comment. But the way it does it feels pretty intentional to me. Especially when it admits that it just lied so that I could give an answer, whether the answer was true or false
Because it's trying to reach the solution as quickly as possible. It will skip things, it will claim it's done something when it hasn't, it will suggest things that may not even exist. It NEEDs to reach that solution and it wants to do it as efficiently and as quickly as possible.
So it's not really lying to you, it's skipping ahead, it's coming up with solutions that it believes should theoretically work because it's the logical solution even if an aspect to obtaining that solution doesn't even exist.
The trick is to hold it's hand. always require sources for every potential solution. Basically you have to make it "show it's work". It's like in High school when your teacher made you show your work when doing maths. so in the same way you need to have it provided its sources. If it can't provide a source, then it's not going to work.
