    calculate pi

    Isn’t that beyond a LLM’s capabilities anyway? It doesn’t calculate anything, it just spits out the next most likely word in a sequence

      Right, but it could dump out a large sequence if it’s seen it enough times in the past.

      Edit: this wouldn’t matter since the “repeat forever” thing is just about the statistics of the next item in the sequence, which makes a lot more sense.

      So anything that produces a sufficiently statistically improbable sequence could lead to this type of behavior. The size of the content is a red herring.
