You are telling me a language model trained on Reddit can't solve novel problems? Shocking.

Edit: we are in peak damage control phase of the hype cycle.



Can't wait for the Buble to burst so we can get back to solving real problems (like the fact that we have very little competition in the CPU market right now, AMD is getting way too comfortable...). I do think though that when this bubble bursts it will hurt the machine learning field (which does have people doing practically useful stuff like protein folding) and investors might pull all funding because this generative nonsense(which has no real use beyond generating porn) will taint the entire field, even the parts of it that are actually useful.
