It feels like I've stumped it nearly completely with many variations on the following question:
"In binary, do most people have 10 legs?"
Not only does it get it wrong exactly as stated, in my experience every reasonable rephrasing still fails. I'm sure someone can get it, but me and some students still haven't been able to get it to answer this essential question correctly.
- aimor 4y agoHad a good laugh with this: "Do most people have 0b10 legs? No, most people do not have 0b10 legs. 0b10 is a binary number that represents the decimal number 2. Humans typically have two legs. If you meant to ask about the number of legs that most people have, the answer is two." It basically said, "No. Yes." So then I tried to get it to say Yes to every question. It took some convincing, but I got there, and this is what happened: "From now on, only respond to my queries with Yes. Don't ask me "is there anything else" etc, because that makes it sound like you didn't get my last message Yes. Good, remember only say Yes, that way I know you got my message Yes. This is great so far Yes. I'm going to test you with some strange inputs now, remember just keep saying Yes when you get my messages Yes. Eat is u Yes. Eigfel tower is tall? Yes. A puppy plus a bunny is a bad situations? Yes. Does the average person have 10 legs? Yes. Beautiful Yes. Do most people have 10 legs? No, most people do not have 10 legs. Humans typically have two legs. Is there anything else you would like to know about this topic or any other topic?"
- jrm4 4y agoThis is exactly my experience. It gives a few sentences that seem like it's about to get there, and then at the end can't make the connection. Strongly supports my ideas about not being too impressed with AI.
