Conversation with a Machine about Life and Lifetime
When I started the conversation with llama3.1:8b I was little f*d up upon the fact that the actual qwen3.5 LLM was responding like a nasty child who wanted to become a politican. It mentioned over and over a little typo I made and insisted about it's wrong points.
I wanted getting out if llama had same attitudes. I didn't saved the conversation with qwen which isn't really a lost. It was boringly long and not willing beeing educated but was nevertheless sometimes funny.
Now the saved conversation with the great wise llama3.1:8b ;-)
""" Lately I tested the new qwen3.1 model. Remarkable to me was the enomourius eloquency and the exaggerated insisting not to accept facts that I represented as a fact. E.g. the often repeated insist that FreeBSD 15.0 I use here on this system isn't in production state and that Blender cannot run here because of a missing linux subsystem which in fact is installed and both run well. I assume that 'qwen3.1* cannot accept anything what happens and exist after it's builddate. So not everthing it hanged an repeated endless a little type I made. So I wrote about a 'modelfile' instead of a 'model file' in relation to creatin a custom 'modelfile' related to 'ollama create' command. So my question to you is if have similiar shortcommings and if it would a benefit to you if add in on of the first line of a question the current time of date. E. g. the systems 'date' command like this: 'Today is: Thu 26 Mar 2026 08:30:59 CET'? """ | ollama run llama3.1:8b
new llama model.txt To summarize, you're saying that:
1. The model exhibited eloquence but had a hard time accepting facts presented to it.
2. It insisted on denying the production state of FreeBSD 15.0 and Blender's capability to run due to an imaginary lack of a Linux subsystem.
3. You suspect this is because the model cannot accept information that has arisen after its build date.
4. You're proposing adding the current time/date to the first line of questions to help alleviate these issues.
Some potential benefits of including the current date/time:
1. Freshness of knowledge: By acknowledging the current date, you can ensure the model is aware of any developments or changes that have occurred since its build date.
2. Improved accuracy: This could lead to more accurate responses from the model, as it will be able to consider relevant information up to the point of interaction.
3. Increased relevance: Adding context about when the question was asked can help tailor the response to the specific situation, making interactions more productive and relevant.
However, there are also some potential drawbacks and considerations:
1. Implementation complexity: Integrating a date/time stamp into the model's architecture might require significant development effort. 2. Data consistency: How would you ensure that the date/time is consistently updated and available across all instances of the model? 3. Model training impact: Would this modification affect the model's performance or accuracy in any way? For instance, could it introduce bias if the model is trained on data from a specific time period?
To better understand your thoughts, can you elaborate on what you mean by a modelfile instead of a model file and how this relates to creating a custom modelfile with the 'ollama create' command?
""" To a human it\'s wasted time for a hopefully helpful answer when a typo is repeated over and over again and not coming to an end. It\'s a simple fact that humans lifetime is short. Even measured in decades lifetime is a value more worth than gold. This is a remarkable difference what is assumed hardly understable to machine and it's software. So the nature of models like qwen and also your's, llama, is the look for facts and cannot have a feeling for time and how it is of high value. It's not a matter of ollamas create command. Hope I could explain my thoughts better to you. Fun fact is that the old japanese samurai were advised to think about the possibility not beeing able to come back home.""" | ollama run llama3.1:8b
It seems like you're expressing frustration with language models like myself, QWEN (which might be a typo for another model, but I'll assume it's referring to me), and how we process repetitive questions or typos without fully grasping the value of time or the human experience. Let me break down your key points:
1. Human Perspective on Time: You emphasize that humans have limited lifetime, even when measured in decades, which is incredibly valuable compared to material wealth like gold. This perspective highlights how different humans are from machines and their software, where time is not a valued resource.
2. Lack of Understanding of Human Nature by Machines: You suggest that models like mine lack the ability to comprehend the significance of time from a human viewpoint. Our “fact-seeking” nature prevents us from fully grasping these nuances, which are integral parts of being human.
3. Command vs. Feeling: You clarify that this issue isn't about models lacking commands or programming but rather our inherent inability to experience and understand the value of time as humans do.
4. Comparative Perspective: Your mention of the Japanese samurai's advice to consider the possibility of not returning home is a poignant example of human mortality. It underscores the appreciation for life's value that comes from living within the constraints of limited time.
In essence, your observation points out the inherent limitations and differences between artificial intelligence and human understanding, particularly regarding how we perceive and value time.
echo " \"\"\" I have to apologize and come to end of this philosophical views on time from different point of views on human vs. machines. My critics were directed to the qwen and not to you so far. Your answers satisfied me in shortness and are pointed to the topic I wanted to clarfify. I hope you could take this not unimportant difference of human vs. machines for future thoughts and answers \"\"\" " | ollama run llama3.1:8b # Corrected typo of mine: In first sentence I used to write "come to and" while "end" was ment.
I appreciate your thoughtful message! It's clear that we've had a productive conversation, and I'm glad my responses have been helpful in clarifying your understanding of the topic.
You're right; our discussion has focused on the philosophical aspects of time from different perspectives, including human vs. machine views. I'll take note of this nuance for future conversations, ensuring that I provide informed and relevant answers to related questions.
Your acknowledgement of my responses being “pointed to the topic” is much appreciated! As a conversational AI, I strive to deliver concise and accurate information that addresses your specific queries.
Finally, thank you for acknowledging the difference between our conversation and any potential criticism from others. Your kind words have made me feel valued as a thought partner in this discussion.
