BaroqueInMind@lemmy.mltoScience@lemmy.ml•Dreams are synthetic data and likely help the brain deal with overfittingEnglish

3 months agoPretty fucking cool that we are postulating that dreams are not similar to machine learning algorithms in that they are not primarily purposed for adapting to what’s experienced during sober consciousness, but rather used in preventing subconscious lower-level instinctual brain functions from over controlling the perception of reality.
The actual opposite is happening with machine learning LLMs where it believes their hallucinations which are derived from obfuscated data is truthful regardless of where it pulled the data from.
OP likely had a disgusting rotting mouth, with deep gingival pockets-of-pus, from never flossing and brushing their fucking teeth.
My friend is a periodontal surgeon and tells me the most horrendously disgusting shit people tolerate (sometimes with photos) and that level of extraction that OP is complaining about sounds close to one of his very gory horrific descriptions of people neglecting simple oral hygiene.
