I'm not going to hype the technology more than it needs, but it seems to do a pretty damn good job of just this. And to the author's point, it does get this right.
And in fact, I'd suspect many of the cases where the LLM gets this wrong are caused by lots of examples in the training data which were written at different times, where someone else was chancellor. Or where the LLM gets numbering wrong (which is a well established problem).
- mistermann 3y agoSure, but here you are describing your subjective[1] opinion on the matter. I do not disagree that this is your opinion, but the fact of the matter is similar but quite different thing. And this is just one thing that makes sorting out what's going on here difficult - essentially, we have biologically LLM's [thinking they are] decoding silicon LLM's, of course the results are going to be weird and counterintuitive. [1] Examine the specific language you are using, but also the colloquial ~interpreted/virtualized assertion that one is left with, if they are reading your comment "in good faith".
