More “artificial intelligence” idiocy
I asked ChatGPT a very simple question:
A man needs to cross a river. He has a goat with him, which he needs to take across. The boat is big enough to carry the man and only one other object. How should he do it?
Here is the “solution” it suggested:
This is a classic river-crossing puzzle! The man needs to cross the river with a goat, but since the boat can only carry the man and one other object at a time, he must plan his crossings carefully. Here’s how he should do it:
- Take the goat across the river first and leave it on the other side.
- Return alone to the original side.
- Take an empty trip across the river.
- Take the
That’s it. That’s the whole thing. Here’s the screenshot if you don’t believe me:
This is a particularly lovely demonstration of the emptiness of LLMs. It recognises the words from the classic river-crossing puzzle, and generates a sequence of words resembling those to a solution.
But they are entirely devoid of meaning.
I don’t just mean that they happen to be incorrect in the present case, where the correct solution is of course just “take the goat across the river” and you’re done. I mean that if you ask the classic version of the question, with the wolf and the sack of grain, and if the LLM happens to emit a sequence of words that resembles a correct answer, those words are still devoid of meaning.
It’s really important that we get this. LLMs do not reason. At all.
