I think a charitable interpretation of their comment is that it hasn't stopped us from practical, fruitful, use. We didn't need an understanding of how it work

We didn't need an understanding of how it worked, or even a word for intelligence, let alone a definition of it, to get good practical results.
- irishcoffee 8mo agoIt’s a statistical gradient descent prediction machine. I never said it wasn’t useful. It absolutely isn’t smart.
- nomel 8mo agoWhat is "it" you're referring to here? Nobody is talking about current LLM. And, we don't know if gradient decent will be involved, since the systems don't exist yet. Maybe it all be some runtime gradient decent. If there's an optimization problem involved in any part of the process, and numbers are involved, there's a near guarantee it will include gradient decent.
