I heard one theory that this is just pre-IPO banter

and they are trying to create legends around, "our models are so strong" ... blah blah blah.

Maybe its true, but there's still a ton of hype w these companies and I definitely dont believe all of it ... let alone much of it.

In other news I saw a video today with a retirement planner reviewing the plan put together with the latest model from ChatGPT. Lots of good banter, but the model was trash when it came to actually calculating correct distributions and planning. Do NOT blindly trust an AI for calculations/stuff like that ... you gotta do your own homework.

The video then showed how the model really struggled with certain "predictions" like "how many "E's" are in the word seventeen? After 6+ voice queries it never once got it right.

"Lets be careful out there."
