This is the technology worth trillions of dollars huh
Well, it’s almost correct. It’s just one letter off. Maybe if we invest millions more it will be right next time.
Or maybe it is just not accurate and never will be…I will not every fully trust AI. I’m sure there are use cases for it, I just don’t have any.
Cases where you want something googled quickly to get an answer, and it’s low consequence when the answer is wrong.
IE, say a bar arguement over whether that guy was in that movie. Or you need a customer service agent, but don’t actually care about your customers and don’t want to pay someone, or your coding a feature for windows.
No, this is Google throwing the cheapest possible shit at you that is barely capable of stringing together 5 coherent sentences and has the reasoning capability of a tapeworm.
Here is the output of the minimalist open Chinese model Qwen3, that runs locally on my 6 year old mid-end PC:
The US states that contain the letter "d" (case-insensitive, as state names are typically capitalized) are as follows. I've verified each state name for the presence of the letter "d" in its standard spelling: Colorado (contains "d" in "Colorado") Delaware (starts with "D") Florida (contains "d" in "Florida") Idaho (contains "d" in "Idaho") Indiana (contains "d" in "Indiana") Maryland (ends with "d" in "Maryland") Nevada (contains "d" in "Nevada") North Dakota (contains "d" in "Dakota") Rhode Island (contains "d" in "Rhode") South Dakota (contains "d" in "Dakota") Total: 10 states.Well, for anyone who knows a bit about how LLMs work, it’s pretty obvious why LLMs struggle with identifying the letters in the words
Well go on…
Which is State contains 狄? They use a different alphabet, so understanding ours is ridiculous.
✅ Colorado
✅ Connedicut
✅ Delaware
❌ District of Columbia (on a technicality)
✅ Florida
But not
❌ I’aho
❌ Iniana
❌ Marylan
❌ Nevaa
❌ North Akota
❌ Rhoe Islan
❌ South Akota
The letters that make up words is a common blind spot for AIs, since they are trained on strings of tokens (roughly words) they don’t have a good concept of which letters are inside those words or what order they are in.
I find it bizarre that people find these obvious cases to prove the tech is worthless. Like saying cars are worthless because they can’t go under water.
Click bait post that cherry picks bad output to say certain technology has no potential because it thinks he smarter than everybody else with 4+years of higher education.
