economics reporter learns "surprising facts" from no data
3 years ago by froztbyte to c/techtakes
starting out[0] with "I was surprised by the following results" and it just goes further down almost-but-not-quite Getting It Avenue
close, but certainly no cigar
choice quotes:
Why is it impressive that a model trained on internet text full of random facts happens to have a lot of random facts memorized? … why does that in any way indicate intelligence or creativity?
That’s a good point.
you don't fucking say
I have a website (TrackingAI.org) that already administers a political survey to AIs every day. So I could easily give the AIs a real intelligence test, and track that over time, too.
really, how?
As I started manually giving AIs IQ tests
oh.
Then it proceeds to mis-identify every single one of the 6 answer options, leading it to pick the wrong answer. There seems to be little rhyme or reason to its misidentifications
if this fuckwit had even the slightest fucking understanding of how these things work, it would be glaringly obvious
there's plenty more, so remember to practice stretching before you start your eyerolls
