Language, we are learning, happens to correlate extremely well with the actual structure of the world. In hindsight, it’s not that surprising. The entire purpose of language is to help humans send information about the world to each other!

Can you define “reasoning”? It’s not clear what the basis for your argument is.

GPT-4 can't play tic-tac-toe or do simple arithmetic. Pathetic, right? Why are people freaking out? What's the big deal? I was able to get it to play tic-tac-toe perfectly by having it carefully check everything before moving forw

You can't think of any ways of taking advanced LLMs and using them as core components in a system that could carry out actions in the world? I bet you can come up with something.

So many people conveniently disregard facts like this. It's much easier to write it off as "impressive auto-complete", "a writing assistant", "simply regurgitating the training data", etc. It's an ali

Why do you believe there will be no significant improvements beyond SOTA in the coming years / decades? That's an incredibly strong stance... I’d love to hear your assessment of the improvements from gpt-3.5 to gpt-4. Do you not t

I have felt similar pain. I’m so sorry. No one should have to suffer the way you are right now. I’m doing much better now. Somatic therapy + touch work is the thing that helped me the most. It changed my life. You need a skilled and caring

From Sundar’s announcement: > We’re releasing it initially with our lightweight model version of LaMDA. This much smaller model requires significantly less computing power, enabling us to scale to more users, allowing for more feedback.

Perhaps gpt has some form of loosy logic and loosy axioms? Not as good as a humans in many cases… but still present.

How about a more human-like approach: the LLM designs a calculator and then makes use of that!

Can you describe how to prompt gpt to play a proper game of tic tac toe? I was disappointed gpt-4 didn’t really improve much on this front, at least with how I was prompting it. Overall I’m very blown away by the generative AI developments.

This comment will not age well in the next several years :) GPT-5 or 6 will be able to do this flawlessly, better than 99% of humans.

Are you extrapolating the improvements from gpt-2 to gpt-3 to gpt-4? The progress is pretty incredible. And this is without any major fundamental breakthroughs. Definitely some great iterative improvements, but it is still all based on tran
