I\u2019ve spent hours with it. Sometimes it does come off like a human with an IQ of about 83, all concentrated in verbal skills. Sometimes it sounds like a human with a much higher IQ than that (and a bunch of naive prejudices). But if you take it out of its comfort zone and try to get it to <em>think<\/em>, it sounds more like a human with profound brain damage. You can take it step by step through a chain of simple inferences, and still have it give an obviously wrong, pattern-matched answer at the end. I wish I\u2019d saved what it told me about cooking and neutrons. Let\u2019s just say it became clear that it did was not using an actual model of the physical world to generate its answers.<\/p>\n<p>Other examples are cherry picked. Having prompted DALL-E and Stable Diffusion quite a bit, I\u2019m pretty convinced those drawings are <em>heavily<\/em> cherry picked; normally you get a few that match your prompt, plus a bunch of stuff that doesn\u2019t really meet the specs, not to mention a bit of eldritch horror. That doesn\u2019t happen if you ask a human to draw something, not even if it\u2019s a small child. And you don\u2019t have to iterate on the prompt so much with a human, either.<\/p>\n<p>Competitive coding is a cherry-picked <em>problem<\/em>, as easy as a coding challenge gets\u2026 the tasks are tightly bounded, described in terms that almost amount to code themselves, and come with comprehensive test cases. On the other hand, \u201ccoding assistants\u201d are out there annoying people by throwing really dumb bugs into their output (which is <em>just close enough<\/em> to right that you might miss those bugs on a quick glance and really get yourself into trouble).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I really don\u2019t care about IQ tests; ChatGPT does not perform at a human level.
