Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Except when you ask it for the meaning of an acronym and they say something with totally different letters. Yet people treat it as a source on something they know so little about that they cannot possibly tell it its just spitting out nonsense.
Okay, but what does afnab really stand for? Don't leave us hanging.
nothing? idk xD i just mashed my keyboard aha
That's exactly it. LLMs and their image counterparts have no innate or burgeoning knowledge as people tend to assume. Their singular, core function is to generate their output from literal random noise, like the static you used to see on TV. So the response to the same question will change because the random noise changed, not because the algorithm learned or reconsidered anything. And if you used the same noise, the answer would be identical. No knowledgeable or self-sufficient AI will ever evolve from that.
Just like your regular uncle. Or ultra right podcaster.
It's no surprise llms behave like the most vocal and dubiously confident people in the world.
It allow to pass from zero knowledge on a subject to 0.1 knoweldge which make people with a little brain to win z little time at the start of a projet. It is still a ecological disaster though. The people comparing it to the ring is the closest I think.
