Can you be sure of that? Can anyone? Might you and I not be the same Markov chain generator without even knowing it?


sort by: page size:

I wouldn't be surprised if you were a markov chain.

I strongly suspect you are a Markov chain.

Are you a Markov chain?

Are you a markov chain?

Are you a markov chain?

Are you a Markov Chain?

are you a markov chain?

Are you implying that markov chains can't be genuine? :)

In any case I guess the revelance of said paragraphs depends on what the Markov chain generator had been fed. Leaves me wondering if we are or can be, at times (and when), Markov chain generators.

I mean, I’m not sure what you’re trying to prove by asking for a Markov chain model like that. It’s trivially true that you can have a Markov chain output whatever you like (somewhat artificially, but we are talking about memorisation here) if you pick your training data carefully.

Isn't that kind of just a markov chain?

Can you prove that you're not a Markov chain? Until proven otherwise the above is just random word salad thrown together by an algorithm.

We're all markov chains when you get down to it.

Thats... what? Is that a reply to my comment or just markov chaining?

how can you be sure you're not a markov chain outputting meaningless rng

That's a whole lot of work for a result that's indistinguishable from a Markov chain generator..

Maybe a Markov Chain wrote it?

>not just a glorified Markov chain

Maybe you're just a longer and more complex chain.


Yes, it is consistent. Markov chains would basically give the same result.
