No, the positive responses mean that at times there was a correct answer to a similar prompt on the internet that was a part of it's training data. It's not that because it makes mistakes it must not be able to understand, that's not the point being made, it's that these aren't mistakes, these responses are it doing what it does exactly how it was built to, which is proof positive that it cannot reason at all.
- kilgnad 4y agoWhen on the internet has something similar occured to a machine emulating a terminal, emulating the internet, emulating itself, then emulating itself creating another terminal? When has that happened? Never. So Of course chatGPT has to construct this scenario creatively from existing data. The components of this construct are similar to what exists on the internet but the construct itself is unique enough that I can confidently say nothing similar exists. Constructing things from existing data is what the human brain does.
