What exactly are you confused about? Plenty of people can learn about constraint propagation and integer programming but LLMs do not have the capability to solve integer programs because LLMs (and neural networks in general) are not generally intelligent.
- IanCal 3y agoI'm not confused I'm saying you're conflating two things - understanding something and being able to perform it in a single pass. Neither llms nor humans have to be able to solve a sudoku puzzle to write code that can. I can be awful at mental arithmetic and write code for a calculator.
- climatologist 3y agoOk, let me know if you can get an LLM to solve sudoku puzzles by prompting it with information on backtracking and recursion.
- IanCal 3y agoNo prompting on backtracking or recursion, that was chosen by the LLM. All I did was tell it to break the problem down and reason about it, then afterwards asked it to write the code. Examples were added by me at the end, from a random sudoku site for "easy" and "hard". https://gist.github.com/IanCal/9817f8b21b2ea6d77940966ee399d2de https://gist.github.com/IanCal/9817f8b21b2ea6d77940966ee399d...
- climatologist 3y agoYou misunderstood what I meant. Prompt the LLM with the sudoku puzzle and ask it to solve it and not write python. Human can do it, LLM can not.
