Completely agree having fed ChatGPT with a number of PDFs of recent papers in the biological sciences. Of course chatGPT is a terrific achievement but I wonder how a journalist in a serious weekly can write the following.
'Nor, ironically, is the future overly bright for the scientists who made these machines: one recent paper on the scientific capabilities of the new AI concludes: ‘[this] Intelligent Agent system [is] capable of autonomously designing, planning, and executing complex scientific experiments. Our system demonstrates exceptional reasoning and experimental design capabilities, effectively addressing complex problems and generating high-quality code.’ So that’s the boffins gone, as well. They’ve boffined themselves into the bin.'
Beats me utterly. Is it something I've missed?
- dragonwriter 4y agoIf its talking about a paper concerning an “Intelligent Agent system”, its not talking about the capacity of a bare LLM like ChatGPT, which (impressive as it is in some conversational tasks) is, as a user-facing product, basically a toy demo. Its talking about an LLM as the central component of a system where the core the system responds to LLM responses by executing actions and reprompting, with the core prompt setup to instruct the LLM on the use of those actions. This can provide abilities like exact recall (either via a local stored database or, e.g., web search) of a wider corpus of facts (not all at once, but selectively as needed) than can fit into prompt space (which is a lot better fidelity than you get with training), the ability to do exact complex calculations (which bare LLMs are bad at), and…well, lots of other things.
