I do wish the writer would stop justifying the relevance of their experiment by saying “a human would conclude that their time was being wasted long before the LLM”.
This is a fallacy.
A better analogy would be a human who has been forced to answer a series of questions at gunpoint.
Framed this way it becomes more obvious that the LLM is not “falling short” in some way.
- johnecheck 2y agoYou miss the point. This isn't about the LLM "falling short" of humanity. It's about observable differences between it and a human. As the author made clear, such a difference is valuable in and of itself because it can be used to detect LLM bots.
- fragmede 2y agowhat they're saying is that a bored human would just sit there and do that, contrary to what the experimenter says, so it can't be used to detect an LLM.
