Why the hell are people (or at least Murdoch?) spending all their energy on AI's factual capability?
Wouldn't it be much more useful to concentrate on AI's intelligence: its inference capability?
- yorwba 2y agoMost people are capable of logical inference just fine if they have all the relevant facts readily available. LLMs are useful because they can potentially recall a much larger set of relevant facts much faster than you could look them up on the internet, albeit at some reduction in accuracy.
