It's kind of perplexing how Google Translate has not improved at all (apparently), given that the "transformer" paper ("Attention is all you need") that kickstarted this whole LLM thing was published by Google(rs) i

It probably depends on the language. In my experience, which aligns with GP's, their performance on Asian languages (to/from English) is notoriously bad. I wouldn't trust it at all . My impression is that it's better am

Given that you can buy a at least a couple hours worth of GPU compute at $20, it's hard to believe the average user spends that much time (specifically waiting for the response) on GPT-4 on the web every month... Not to mention that th

Doesn't this itself prove the article's point though? If you don't know anything, it seems rather presumptuous to say somebody has committed a fallacy.

That aside, I think it can be a serious scientific question as well. i.e. Is there a scientific explanation for the fact that the ratio between the diameter of the Sun and Moon are the same as the ratio between their distances to Earth su

You've been out of date regarding Hong Kong politics for ~3 years mate. Probably should check out the latest developments before lecturing others about reality.

The relationship between alcohol and programming performance is interesting enough that I actually skimmed through the paper and tried to figure out how legit it was. Sadly there's only one test subject. So basically this is a report

I'm kinda on the fence with this one. I mean, the site is apparently a real law firm in San Francisco, so even if it's fictional (the names definitely should be!), the stories are probably based on real events. Unless one of the p

As another comment points out, plenty get by with high school algebra. (I kind of fall into that category.) Whatever extra math is required can be considered (sub)domain knowledge. If you want an efficient way to approach this, you can just

If you only have numbers up to 9 an exhaustive search shouldn't be too bad (should be ~9! states if you memoize), you could implement a solver in Javascript and see whether a solution can be found before you give it to the user.
