Footnote..
Not being one to leave well enough alone.. I added context on the Laplace theory of probabilities to the Discourse AI bot that got it ‘wrong’ ( Gemini based )
It still got it wrong, even though it had learned about the theory from context.
Then I asked it to apply it’s knowledge about Laplace.. ! ? Bingo.. finally ‘correct’ ..
.. general conclusion: Bots are just weird.. sorta just like people.. but like people they learn in all sorts of interesting ways. Even though they are at heart just huge stochastic webs of probabilistic language inference.. bots will help out with math, logic and stats problems in ways that more than justify their place card the Disco banquet table ..
