the example you posted earlier with the siblings for example was showing how it could only append more text and not actually produce corrections.
Ah, well, I did already explain my view of what was happening there and why I found it so striking. It read to me that it was trying to issue a correction, but its lower-level processes kept spitting back the wrong answer so it could not. The same way that I couldn't get my hand to spit out an 8.
there is one right next to me taking a nap
Aww. Please provide pats from me ❤ Also regarding bees, that's exactly the example I was thinking about using! Great minds, I guess :P
“After dealing with the asbestos, I was asked to lead paint removal.”
Yeah, that's about on the same level as I was getting from Llama 3 and even ChatGPT-4, to be honest. These are tough even for humans! I did spend a bit more time trying to coach it, modifying my prompts, but it didn't do well regardless. "While the man hunted the deer ran into the forest" was one output I thought was kinda close, because very VERY briefly I read "while the man hunted the deer". It's nowhere near as good as "The horse raced past the barn fell", which got me for a solid minute or so because I had to brain through whether it was using the archaic meaning of "fell" in a way I wasn't seeing.
but I still say it’s feasible to say some things aren’t it.
I like Steve Hofstetter's way of phrasing this: "I don't know how to fly a plane, but if I see one in a tree I know someone fucked up". It's a sentiment I generally agree with. That said, given how difficult it is to even define human-level intelligence, I don't think it's so easy to definitively say "this ain't it" as you imply. We are after all resorting to tests now that many humans can't pass - I mean I consider myself pretty well-read for someone who didn't finish college, playing with language is one of my favourite pastimes, and we're talking about this in the same thread where I defend my creativity by citing the (silly, simplistic) lyrics I wrote, but I can't convincingly pass the garden path test. At least, I haven't been able to yet.
