  • Okay, i think there is quite a misunderstanding here.

    Some older versions of LLMs (chatgpt3.5-turbo-instruct) can play chess relatively well (around 1750 Elo) : here is a link to an article studying that.

    Some points :

    • it is of course way worse than almost any algorithm designed for chess
    • one of the reason we cannot get these result back (at least not that good, here is a link to a blog post of someone making recent LLMs chatbots better at chess) could be that we do not have access to pure completion mode on models trained on selected data (where they could purposefully choose only good chess matches), and those are now hidden behind a chatbot layer instead.
    • it seems to reveal that models have a somehow accurate representation of the chess board when predicting chess moves
    • it seems to have a quite unique feat that is : if you feed them a prompt that say they play as a very good player, and then the beginning of a game with a blatant bad move (giving away a queen for example), they sometimes play the entire game with moves that purposefully give away pieces, as if they guess that the only reason they would lose a piece that easily is by purposefully losing them. It has close to zero utility, but it’s interesting anyway.









  • Toi aussi tu veux te payer le Groenland O.o ?

    Blague à part, je suis d’accord avec toi sur le principe “ce n’est pas l’argent en lui-même qui rend con”. Par contre, je pense qu’on peut faire survivre le problème si on considère que l’argent est entendu ici non pas comme une somme de monnaie concrète, mais comme un ensemble de transactions qui organise notre société. Ce n’est plus alors l’utilisation du billet de 1 dollar qui peut rendre con/méchant, mais ce qu’on ferait pour en obtenir d’autre, ou pour ne pas le perdre, etc. A ce titre, on peut agir de manières qui ne sont cohérentes que si on les prend du point de vue de l’argent (comme des achats compulsifs pendant les soldes), ce qui peut faire dire que l’argent rend con/méchant en introduisant des mécaniques qui nous font prendre des décisions cons/méchant.


  • Crêpes-party ! Cook a bunch of crêpes and prepare some stuff to put in : either salty (meats, cheeses, cream, smoked fish,…) or sweet (chocolate sauce, caramel, jelly, fruits spread, sugar,…). You can ask people what they like before hand, so that everyone has something they appreciate. If you need a vegan option, you can swap milk for plant milk and eggs for a mix of starch and water.
