That's quite a supervillain origin story: "I was promised a jetpack, but then I grew up discovered that it was just a special effect. In revenge, I am promising you superintelligent AIs and self-driving cars, and these, too, are SFX."

In other words: "Die a disillusioned jetpack fan or live long enough to become the fraudster who cooked up the jetpack lie you despise."

i need to keep a count of the times where i see people studying chatgpt mistakes asking chatgpt to explain its reasoning or to reflect on the mistakes

IT CAN'T

IT HAS NO INTERNAL WORLD MODEL OR CONSCIOUSNESS OR REASONING PROCESS

so it's not explaining its mistakes to you, its generating something that looks like an explanation but there is no reason to believe that it's connected to the actual process that generated the mistake

@tshirtman this isn't what "model of the world" means though, otherwise you might as well say that ngram frequencies are a model of the world because they encode some facts about the world. Whichโ€ฆ well you can choose to define "model of the world" this way, but it wouldn't be a very useful definition

@tshirtman i recommend a look at recent work and communications from @emilymbender, for instance https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qpE40jwMilU

it's so funny how #Welsh decided /k/ should be written c and the letter k would not ever be written and #Breton decided /k/ should be written k and c should be only used in digraphs (ch /สƒ/ and c'h /x/) like siblings wearing opposite clothes in order to have individual identities

@nic oh interesting, there also used to be C in printed breton up to the late 19th century and even qu in old texts

    I have a vivid memory about a work on annotation transfer back when that was a thing. One finding that stayed with me is "training on an automatic translation of all the data that exists in English is worse than training on 11 sentences annotated by a native speaker"

    i think I'm reaching my breaking point about research whose pitch is "how can we do domain specific stuff without domain expert"/"how to deal with data scarcity situation without collecting new data": DON'T! hire the experts! collect the data! we are wasting so much time and money with this
