You must have a pretty impressive resume if you don’t consider François a researcher! The wikipedia would disagree with you [0], as would anyone that has had any interaction with him on the subject.

- ein0p 3y agoTry to find a single paper on Transformers or LLMs in general in Francois’ scientific output: https://dblp.org/pid/116/8242.html https://dblp.org/pid/116/8242.html Don’t get me wrong, Keras is impressive, and Francois is impressive as well. But for insight on LLMs you should probably listen to people who specialize in them.
- kmac_ 3y agoIf you measure knowledge by the number of publications, then LLMs know nothing.
- vidarh 3y agoThey made the argument he's not a researcher in this field, not that he doesn't know anything. And an LLM is indeed not a researcher in this field either.
- kmac_ 3y agoIt appears that my previous comment lacked clarity. I assumed the inherent absurdity and illogicality of the statement would be self-evident. Dismissing François's opinion, a seasoned professional with extensive expertise in model development and the creator of ARC, solely because he asserts that LLMs are far from achieving AGI and using publication count as the metric for evaluating him is not a well-reasoned argument. While LLMs and transformers are indeed remarkable achievements and will undoubtedly reveal more properties, they have yet to exhibit any true signs of "intelligence."
- vidarh 3y agoAcknowledging that they have not yet shown signs of "true intelligence" is a vastly more moderate claim than the person above ascribed to him.
