#92paleolith + cat = Paleolithic Age
paleolith + dog = Paleolithic Age
paleolith - cat = neolith

This is an LLM approximating a semantic calculator, based solely on trained-in knowledge of what that is and probably a good amount of sample output, yet somehow beating the results of a "real" semantic calculator. That's crazy! The more I think about it the less surprised I am, but my initial thoughts were quite simply "now way" - surely an approximation of an NLP model made by another NLP model can't beat the origi…

I.e. are there a great number of other "meaningful" examples like this, or actually the majority of the time you end up with some kind of vaguely tangentially related word when adding and subtracting word vectors. (Which seems to be what this tool is helping to illustrate, having bri…
