      if you define god as the creator of the universe then everything that has or ever will happen is credited to god because the universe is deterministic

      even if you take away the concept of the creator and examine the system from within, the answer is the same. we're in a deterministic system and anything that happens happened because it was always going to happen

      anyway god is real

          But why does mass cause gravity?

            That's a completely different question from "what causes gravity". Furthermore, even if I answered the question ("mass causes gravity because mass has XXXXXXXX") then you could follow up with an unlimited number of "But why does mass have XXXXXXXX" bullshit questions until I'm unable to answer.
            Just because an unlimited string of "Why" questions can never be answered in a non-circular fashion it doesn't mean that "because God" is the answer.
            "Why does God exist?" Ponder that.

                thanks, important distinction. if you believe in God (or any creator), you should ask him why the rules are what they are. if you don't, you'll have to learn to live with never knowing.

          That isn't even true, you might just as well claim the reverse. Ultimately the real question is why the universe has consistent universal laws and why these laws are exactly what they are.
          These questions are fundamentally unscientific of course.

                idk bro, i think photons have a mass, even though it's very small. just because some homosexual scientists came up with a "theory" doesn't mean it's true, especially when it doesn't match reality.

            this is a theory. put another way, i concede that the universal "laws" that you claim are consistent may have been tested hundreds, thousands, or millions of times and come out to be the same each time. but that doesnt mean that in the future they will not hold true--that is why for example, gravity is a theory, as is evolution.

        "science" especially in anglo countries refers to a specific set of methodologies which are based around the ideas of empiricism.

        In recent years it has become far more extreme incorporating specific mathematical tests which need to be performed on data, which are the sole deciders of truth (p-values).

    I sincerely hope there is more effort to give the backstory and contextualize WHAT chatgtp even is exactly... The meandering lack of PSAs is IMO reckless and the gold rush momentum of production and distribution of language model like tools is outpacing peoples ability to even grasp what they are... This sets the stage for a lot of seriously foolish and otherwise well intended blunders by folks not really even knowing the objective utility of these language models. When people who might not understand what Language models are, they are likely to experience some culture shock moments... Seeing as how these models are dynamic and the hype around them has over promised thier utility and function.

    The human demand and desire for socialization, this shouldnt be a selling point, unless we are ready to outright outsource place for wholesale socialization..., organic or artifical?
    Is this a net positive? Time will tell, perhaps there is a formal and structured way we can separate Language models into "personable, or non personable, amnesiac, forgetful... There needs to be some clearly defined scope and limits to these tools for simplicity and utility sake. by the day language model weight adjustment, censoring, or outright "lobotomizing" these language models with names.

    Im still somewhat surprised to see that of otherwise technologically literate folks, haphaxardly approach these language models, mistaking them for a person or deity, instead of a language modulator.

    Id like to see a well produced PSA that gently nudges folks to these understandings, while priming them for how to get the most out of these tools as information organizers, listers, sifters, csv table outputs, tutoring resource connecting..., learning, and technical helper.

      In the spirit of an or anthropological perspective, outside the fish bowl view by people who are historically informed about fourier transforms, language models, and how this is based on a stack of previous inventions and developments.... And then cross compare to people historically doing things like anthropomorphizing special rocks painted or shaped to look like gods or spirits...we have all the technological understanding of the how, but we might benefit by helping the masses try and really distill what Language models ARE.
