Anyone even believing that a generic word auto completer would beat classic algorithms wherever possible probably belongs into a psychiatry.

There are a lot of people out there that think LLM's are somehow reasoning. Even reasoning models aren't really doing it. It important to do demonstrations like this in the hopes that the general public will understand the limitations of this tech.

THIS is the thing. The general public's perception of ChatGPT is basically whatever OpenAI's marketing department tells them to believe, plus their single memory of that one time they tested out ChatGPT and it was pretty impressive. Right now, OpenAI is telling everyone that they are a few years away from Artificial General Intelligence. Tests like this one demonstrate how wrong OpenAI is in that assertion.

It's almost as bad as the opposition's comparison of it to Skynet. People are never going to understand technology without applying some fucking nuance.

Stop hyping new technology... in either direction.
