"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
And Islam the first verse was ‘read’
The first time I heard about emergent behavior in llms I thought about that.
Maybe thought is too much because I don’t have anything coherent in mind but it feels so captivating like the premise of sci-fi story.
What’s in Europe ( or maybe not to generalize in France/Germany) that creates this bias for consulting?

What is Palestine?
TALKIE-1930
Palestine is a small country in Southwestern Asia, lying between 31° and 33° north latitude, and 34° and 36° east longitude. It is bounded on the north by Syria, from which it is separated by the valley of the river Leontes or Litany, and a line drawn from that stream to the head of the Gulf of Akabah; on the east by the same gulf and the Desert of Arabia; on the south by the peninsula of Sinai, and on the west by the Mediterranean Sea. The greatest length of the country, from north to south, is 140 miles, and the greatest breadth, from east to west, 80 miles. The area may be estimated at 6,000 square miles. The principal towns are Jerusalem, Nazareth, Bethlehem, Jaffa, and Acre, on the west; and Jericho, Hebron, and Ghazzeh, on the east of Jordan. The maritime plain, which stretches along the whole length of the country, from north to south, has an average breadth of 10 miles, and the elevated tableland which forms the interior has a mean height of 2,500 feet above the sea. The river Jordan traverses the holy land, from north to south, in a course of 150 miles. The climate of Palestine is warm, but healthy, and the soil, where cultivated, remarkably fertile. The chief productions are grain, fruits, and wine. The inhabitants are Arabs, speaking a peculiar dialect of the Arabic language, and professing Mohammedanism. The total population may amount to 200,000. Palestine was first occupied by the Canaanites, and afterwards passed under the dominion of the Israelites, from whom it received the name of Judæa. Under the Romans it formed a province of the empire, and, in the fifth century, became the seat of a Christian patriarchate. In the middle ages, it was subject to the dominion of the Crusaders; and, in more modern times, it has been ruled by Tartars, Egyptians, and Turks. At present, it is governed by a pasha, who resides at Acre, and whose authority extends no further north than Nabloos, the ancient Shechem. The holy land was long regarded with veneration by Christians of all sects, and pilgrimages were made to it from Western Europe. Since the establishment of the Turkish power in Syria, these have gradually fallen off, and Palestine has now lost much of its interest in Western eyes
But nothing prevents llms from being RLed to do this right?
But does training llms to be better at this, improves their world model or does it only make changes at the surface?
On what respect? He didn’t have the moral clarity not to join a nazi organization when he was young. He was given a chance to redeem herself but he failed. In fact, he pushed for a doctrine that directly led to widespread harassment of anti-genocide activists and illegal travel bans and malicious prosecutions of them.
I don’t think a test with R^2 of 0.27 should be used to completely reject candidates. It should have weighting proportional to its explanatory power.
Claiming that such a test worked is in my opinion BS. It was clearly being overused.
Sorting the floats reduces the error. I think using multiple accumulators reduces the accuracy then. And sorted data is not uncommon.
I think there is always a correct answer and the compiler shouldn’t make changes at least by default that are wrong.
But ways for the programmer to express his intent more clearly are always welcome.
The Idf knew about the attack 3 weeks in advance. Idk why u still defend Bibi online. He deserves life in prison for treason.
To answer your question though. It’s neither. The court found that allegations of genocide are plausible.
That is, especially some of the statements by senior officials could be understood as genocidal.
What I gleaned from reading blogs: It is likely that the actus reus for genocide is there but intent will be very hard to prove if it exists
A great article from an international law prof explaining the finding can be found here: https://www.ejiltalk.org/icj-indicates-provisional-measures-...
The blog has articles on the topic from both sides from numerous lawyers
