Some AI models get more accurate at maths if you ask them to respond as if they are a Star Trek character, ML engineers say::Researchers asking a chatbot to optimize its own prompts found it was best at solving grade-school math when acting like it was on Star Trek.
It is only logical that an algorithm trained on the ways of a Vulcan, is precise and accurate in it operation and communication. Vastly more fascinating are the result when you ask it to behave like a human.
*Picks up wireless mouse* Hello, computer.

Did they try to ask the models to act as Euler, Gauss or Tao?
“Answer as if you’re a tribble.“
But then all it can do is multiply.
That’s troubling.
LLM detractors hate this one weird trick
We’ve finally figured out how to trick the computer that’s bad at math into being less bad at math.
