I work with people who directly train LLMs. I can assure you if you think these things are probability machines, you have not played with it thoroughly. Alexa or cortana or even GPT-3 are more like probability generators. ChatGPT is different. From one angle yes it is a probability machine. But from that angle, EVEN your own human brain is a probability machine as well. They are both neural nets. It understands you. Read this to the end: https://www.engraved.blog/building-a-virtual-machine-inside/ https://www.engraved.blog/building-a-virtual-machine-inside/ All the tasks it did in that article. Not just what it did initially but all the way to the ending shows that chatGPT understands you. It IS an inflection point. You just missed it. You're probably dismissing it because you've been reading the same old hype over and over again without realizing something different came out with chatGPT.

> shows that chatGPT understands you. Yes, like your dog understand you when you call his name, but not when you describe him how to go to the nearest post office by showing him a map. As much as you want it to believe it's just not happening, because it's physically not possible for it to happen I can also write an article about the Joys of ChatGPT, I just have to eliminate the garbage I get about 50% of the time, then it's a wonderful machine for sure. Try it yourself btw, most of the examples don't work, because you don't see the hours of prompting used to get it where they want it to get, in my example it would be like using a map to walk your dog to the post office and pretend your dog did it by itself by taking step by step images of your dog next to the map at every direction change. Damn I feel like very smart people act as gullible as 13 years old tiktokers learning "how to burn 5kg of fat a week by eating leeks"

  I tried it myself extensively. Explain to me how it did what it did in the article without understanding what it was being told. Each step including the end when it refers to itself. Seriously. I didn't just post a "wonderful" article. That's only what it appears to be when you skim it without fully reading it.
