Stephen Hawking would have failed this test.
- danielbln 3y agoI would fail that test, you'd end up with a pretty good coffee and a still broken toilet, yet I consider myself generally intelligent on most days.
- Barrin92 3y agoI'm not sure if that's a quip or a serious point but that is because Stephen Hawking in old age lost that capacity, not because he principally lacked it. ChatGpt et al did not walk around last week and are now suffering from robot ALS because there servers have too much dust on them, they just lack that modality altogether (like any other apart from generating text)
