    It's a bit of misdirection, since you actually have more options than just clicking the button.

    ELIZA fooled plenty of people (both originally and in the study you just linked) but i still wouldn't say Eliza passed/passes the turing test in general. It just shows that occasio…

    I get the impression LLM agents are a bit like tamagochi but for tech bros.

    This is nice but it looks so suspiciously AI-written how can I trust it? I could just ask ChatGPT for any of these things myself.

    Ruby has a similarly intuitive `3.times do ... end` syntax

    A human being informed of a mistake will usually be able to resolve it and learn something in the process, whereas an LLM is more likely to spiral into nonsense

    At least until they spend some time with it

    It also doesn't need to be good for anything to turn the world upside down, but it would be nice if it was

    I assume you're not very interested in the subject if you think synthesizers aren't real instruments

    I didn't mean that a human driver needs to leave their vehicle to drive safely, I mean that we understand the world because we live in it. No amount of machine learning can give au…

    I wouldn't trust a human to drive a car if they had perfect vision but were otherwise deaf, had no proprioception and were unable to walk out of their car to observe and interact w…

    How many images do you need? What are the use-cases that need a bunch of artificial yet photoreal images produced or altered without human supervision?

    Thinking is subconscious when working on complex problems. Thinking is symbolic or spatial when working in relevant domains. And in my own experience, I often know what is going to…

    By what definition of turing test? LLMs are by no means capable of passing for human in a direct comparison and under scrutiny, they don't even have enough perception to succeed in…

    I haven't kept up with his tweets, but I got the impression he deliberately chose to not get involved in LLM hype in his own AI research?

    Like with music generation models, the main thing that might make "open source" models better is most likely that they have no concern about excluding copyrighted material from the…

    You said it, those tests are designed to measure human intelligence, because we know that there is a correspondence between test results and other, more general tasks - in humans. …

    Ironically, I almost never see quick answers in the top results, mostly it's dragged out pages of paragraph after paragraph with ads inbetween.

    I like to think I have a pretty sharp eye for LLM output, and nothing else in the article raised any alarms for me.

    Does the abstract sound like ChatGPT output to anyone else? Their A and B require a delicate balance of C and D, 'compelling', 'embody a distinct intersection', 'wide array of poss…

    It is easy to construct an MLP that implements any basic logic function. But XOR requires at least one hidden layer.

    Anything except tasks that require having direct control of a physical body. Until fully functional androids are developed, there is a lot a human-level AI can't do.
