"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

In order to make such affirmation or infirmation we'll need to define understanding.
The example you gave can be explained by other way than "it doesn't understand".

For example, the "how many 'r' in strawberry", LLMs see tokens, and the dataset they use, doesn't contain a lot of data about the letters that are present in a token.
