So the more I use ChatGPT the less I am impressed. I think computers would be embarassed that we call LLMs intelligence. It is the battle of yore! Is it smarter to memorize or understand? Memory can certainly ‘appear’ to be knowledge to those it tells in minute detail what they want to hear but I would never trust any yes man or machine just regurgitating what it thinks you want. I’ve tried it on quote origins “In the land of the dark the ship of the sun is drawn by the Grateful Dead”, short story searches (In my early schooling I read a short story about a man who doesn’t mow his lawn raising a daughter that I’ve been trying to find for decades) and even on how Sleeping Beauty was awakened and it gave wrong answers. Contradicting itself when pressed.

AI, at least at this point, can be just be used to stimulate thought and until ‘truth CGPs’ are embedded in the LLMs and at least two diverse programmed models are reconciling the answer and not trusted as authoritative answers.
