I had a trouble ticket on the job today that I couldn't fix with a bunch of regular searches on the error. So I gave it to GPT-4o and it came up with the right answer on the first try. I just needed to ask it a few more questions to understand the answer. If a smart high schooler could have answered it as well and as quickly, that would be extraordinary. It saved me real time on real work on a day when I didn't want to be working.
- YZF 2y agoMind sharing more details? What you're describing sounds more like a knowledge base and less like a general intelligence. The high schooler might fare worst on something that requires memorizing an encyclopedia but might fare better on an original problem that nobody has seen before. Was GPT-4o just synthesizing something from its trained data or did it have to do real problem solving?
- delichon 2y agoThe prompt was the error: "Mysql2::Error: Incorrect string value: '\\xF0\\x9D\\x9C\\x86 i...' for column 'variables' at row 1". It quickly led me to understand that this character is from 4-byte UTF8 but my db is set to 3-byte UTF8. Whether this is "real" problem solving or not, it helped me solve a real problem.
- YZF 2y agoCool. Thanks! By the way, looks like this topic/paper had a few other competing posts and one of them got more discussion a few days ago. One thing is sure, these are interesting times in AI.
