So what? Review and test it before running in production. Humans also screw things up on first attempts. Test it, check the output, fix it, try again. In my experience with GPT-4 if you describe a bug it will correct it.

Shorter but missing an important detail. The article explains that every 8th bit is lost to allow for control signalling that steals the 8th LSB on every 6th frame. Hence 7/8 * 64 = 56. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki

An example of an important human task that is not "economically valuable" in this sense, is caregiving within a family, such as parenting, since parents are not employed in that role. OpenAI is not setting the goal post that far,
