• Univocity of AI: Cat Face Recognition (Was: Best way to use LLMs toaugment academic research)

    Hi,

    I did the same using multiple LLMs in the past
    few weeks. Until ChatGPT degraded, they phased
    out the old models, and its now only 5.x.

    You get the effect of 4 eyes see more than 2 eyes.
    Now its for ChatGPT 5.x. kind of 1 eye and 1 eye-
    patch, plus completely brain amputated.

    Bye

    P.S.: Maybe the best AI application is this here:

    Does your cat bring home “gifts” too?

    Maybe you should figure more how it's "univocal" than "unequivocal".


    by "unequivocal" I only mean that every LLM takes the
    prompt to mean exactly the same thing after as many
    as hundreds and hundreds of progressive refinements.

    Then after the prompt has been further refined to achieve
    a complete consensus across all five LLMs this is a good
    ballpark estimate of literally unequivocal.

    The final test is against foundational peer reviewed
    research written by the well established leaders in
    the field.

    For example, you can give it an account of what "equality",
    according to Quine according to Russell, "is", and show
    that now it's removed and quite capricious and not very arbitrary.

    I.e., that's readily "equivocated".


    The philo-sophy needs an account of the philo-casuy, or as
    with regards to distinguishing and disambiguationg
    the "sophistry" and the "casuistry".


    Ultimately my system uses GUIDs for each unique sense
    meaning of every word.

    Or, anybody else's opinion is just as good, and not bad.

    So, "univocity" is a usual account against "the synthetic fragmentation
    into pluralistic accounts of wholes". that's been around forever,
    and is part of the philosophical canon.

    Hi,

    Rumours are that the real winner is currently
    Google, advancing the art of LLMs and LRMs,
    while OpenAI and Anthropic only want to

    go IP, and have raining money. My brave
    AI Laptops can do the following:

    Q: Did Ramanujan consider this facny diophantine equations:
    x + sqrt(y) = 7
    sqrt(x) + y = 11

    A: The "Ramanujan Style"
    Longer answer generated locally, with y=9,x=4.

    What model did I use:

    https://lmstudio.ai/models/google/gemma-4-26b-a4b

    Performance of the AI Laptops:

    /* AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 with Radeon 860M */
    14 Tokens/sec
    /* Intel Core Ultra 7 258V with Intel Arc 140V */
    14 Tokens/sec

    Still a little lame. Maybe this explains why I don't
    use local models more often.

    But its a start!

    Bye
