I see this argument every time this particular failing is brought up and like, regardless of the reasoning, it's still completely failing to do something a second grader should be able to do and until it stops failing in that way, being like "Um technically it's a lot harder than you think" isn't going to win over AI skeptics.
- strbean 1y agoA Chinese second grader would probably not be able to answer "How many Rs are in the word 草莓?" It's a valid critique.
- ryanmcbride 1y agoYou're right they probably wouldn't be able to to it, but that child isn't being marketed as an invaluable business tool to assist doctors in diagnosing cancer, or whatever.
- strbean 1y agoSure. A non-English speaking adult wouldn't be able to answer the question either, after the question was translated to their language. Maybe you wouldn't want a non-English speaker helping you to write an acrostic in English. Luckily nobody is marketing LLMs as "great for designing word puzzles" though.
