Chomsky hasn't made any reversal, Norvig misrepresents what Chomsky has said. > Chomsky is now unhappy that LLMs can learn /any/ language, even unnatural ones, and therefore aren't good tools for understanding human language That's also not what he has said: He said they aren't useful for understanding the human language faculty, in other words, understanding how people are able to have language. As he says it obviously can't be the same way as LLMs because LLMs are able to learn languages humans can't learn.
