GPT-4 is all imagination and no logic. That&#x27;s because logic gets you into the hall of mirrors talked about in this book<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;G%C3%B6del,_Escher,_Bach" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;G%C3%B6del,_Escher,_Bach</a><p>The dirty little secret is that Godel&#x27;s theorems apply to <i>problems for which the correct solution is defined in terms of logic</i> not to <i>systems which try to solve problems with logic.</i> Thus a problem which is problematic is problematic if you try to solve it with a SAT solver or a neural network.<p>But really, most people give up pretty quickly when asked to do something open ended. If you told a line of people that you&#x27;d push them into a meat grinder if they didn&#x27;t brainstorm 100 ideas you&#x27;d probably have to push the first one so that the rest of them believe you but the rest of them will give you exactly 100 ideas.
