To give an example of the limitations of these things that's hopefully easy to understand, I got access to Bard this morning and asked it to write a limerick. It gave me what could charitably be called a free verse poem that happened to begin "there once was a man from Nantucket." I'm sure they can improve on it (ChatGPT was better at this kind of thing when I had access to it) but "solved problem" is clearly a long way off.
- FeepingCreature 4y agoYeah, at least two years.
- hallway_monitor 4y agoSeems Pretty Good to me! Better than I could do anyway. Bard is a joke compared to GPT-4: "Write a limerick about a dog" There once was a dog from the pound Whose bark had a curious sound With a wag and a woof, He'd jump on the roof, Delighting the folks all around.
- emodendroket 4y agoYes, much more compelling. But if this were a “solved problem” then any of them should be able to do it easily. It’s not like I need to compare the results of sorting between different programs. It just works. That is a solved problem.
- sebzim4500 4y agoA solved problem means that someone has solved it, not that everyone has.
- emodendroket 4y agoYou can use the term to mean whatever you want but in my mind it means it's boring with no particular room for improvement. Even the biggest booster isn't going to say that about this AI. And keep in mind, "write me a limerick" is a pretty easy prompt. We're not trying to do anything too novel or crazy there.
