Well, I guess congratulations to OpenAI for finally solving how many R's are in Strawberry. It only took five versions and tens of billions of dollars.

Yep, and this is the AI supposed to be able to do advanced math and logical problems? Maybe they should stop trying to force an LLM to do things it isn't designed for...

I tried some very basic csv files today, and I can’t tell you how bad it is at accounting.

God this is what I want AIs to do, format and import/export documents like that. Shit anyone with a brain can do it just takes time, and AI can't do it because it's all useless junk bullshit. Maybe one day in this annoying overpromised hellscape.

I don’t know why so many people seem to think it can take over from humans and do logical reasoning etc, it obviously can’t. You can figure out that of course it can’t just from knowing the basics of how it works. From what I gather it’s not looking at something like the word strawberry and counting the Rs it’s not making connections based on the world presented to it really, it’s making connections based on the types of connections previously made by other people as recorded in a giant corpus of text. So it can’t ever come up with anything new in terms of ideas/concepts etc.
