A river was damned with water and turned millions of gallons of water in order to give us this digital abomination

Mad love for that word play

To be fair, I suppose it is a well known fact that countries do indeed fit inside itself

[–] Simulation6@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Country usually has coastal waters. For example 12 miles off the coast of the US is still considered part of the US. So the country US does not fit into its physical land area.

[–] sukhmel@programming.dev 1 points 1 week ago

Maybe op asked for physical area to fit into country, since we're specifying ambiguous part

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 2 points 1 week ago

Not mine though.

I'm rotating Russia incorrectly. you can't stop me.

Russia goes where?

that's right! in the Japan hole!

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago

Yeah rotate in 3D and it’ll fit nearly infinitely inside its outline. Unless you count the thickness of the crust or something topographical.

Best response by far. Very human-like.

True but at least it just sounds sarcastic rather than astonished that this obvious fact is actually true.

[–] timestatic@feddit.org 1 points 1 week ago

You know, thats where a bunch of the natural language training for these models come from. (But sure Grok is probably even aimed at this type of speech

[–] RamenJunkie@midwest.social 3 points 1 week ago

That population comment has me wondering now. Is there a country that the population of itself, would NOT fit inside.

Like maybe some random tiny European country that produces a lot of people who go live in larger nearby countries, but they are still citizens of their home land. Then for some reason, they all decide to return home.

I guess my point is, that actually could very easily be true, that there is a country that can't actually contain its population.

I mean, physically, probably not, but more like, with houses and shit.

Hey at least the profit margin benefited from a few lay offs and market speculation over this

[–] itkovian@lemmy.world 30 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Truly the technology of the future. /s

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

More like the present, unless you want to lose your job, capiche?

All the more reason to get on the AI bandwagon!

(/s, and I hope you manage to find one, in the case that you want and are looking for one)

[–] NostraDavid@programming.dev 3 points 1 week ago

This isn't the thinking version, which is a LOT better than the instant model. I don't use the instant version any more, due to hallucinations.

[–] Pothetato@lemmy.world 23 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You can tell because of the way it is

[–] Mog_fanatic@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

That's pretty neat!

My Mistral conversation was very similar to yours too so I won't bother posting it

Alright it's been fun boys, pack it up, this shit is over

Still more intelligent that most CEOs

China is the most populous country, as well as one of the largest, to achieve this.

This was made possible due to the One China Policy (1 China = 1 China).

[–] chunes@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

DeepSeek does a little better with this.

That's a fun play on words! Since "the size of Japan" is just a measure of its own land area, it's trivially true that Japan fits perfectly inside itself — just like any country or shape fits perfectly inside its own boundaries. It’s a tautology, but it sounds like a clever riddle at first listen. Nice one!

[–] atopi@piefed.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 week ago

they both are nondeterministic

both could give the right answer and then the wrong answer with the same prompt

one try is not enough to say one model is better than the other

[–] timestatic@feddit.org 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Crazy how somebody is even mentioning the fact, that Russia can fit multiple times in itself, but only, and only if rotated correctly. I also love the sentence used to conclude by ChatGPT:

Geographers still don't fully understand why Japan matches Japan so closely.

Any Geographers here to explain? But no seriously I know this is frequent but the way it speaks to make its statement seem believable by citing non-existent expert certainly is not one of the better sides of LLMs.

[–] xthexder@l.sw0.com 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No, no, it clearly states Russia can only fit inside itself multiple times if rotated INCORRECTLY. Like, opps, I fell through a 4D wormhole while rotating Russia.

[–] timestatic@feddit.org 2 points 1 week ago

Wait i overread that thats absurf

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

still don't fully understand why Japan matches Japan so closely.

my fuckin sides! has anyone seen my sides??

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Also Switzerland (if you make it fit).
