ChatGPT could never get a PhD in geography

Which ChatGPT model was this? Was web search enabled? Reasoning? Those will make a big difference in results, I imagine, and not mentioning them makes the article almost meaningless.<p>&gt; How are you suppose do data analysis with “intelligent” software that can’t nail something so basic?<p>It is really interesting how there seems to be a camp of people that tries one of these tools for something it&#x27;s not very good at, then declares the tool is useless. No, it&#x27;s not AGI, and yes, it has a lot of weak spots. But like any tool, you <i>do</i> have to know how to use it. And it&#x27;s clearly creating a lot of value for the people who do know where its strengths and weaknesses are.

None of these posts ever seem to mention which exact model was used. Was reasoning turned on? Was internet search enabled?

Garys in his daily low effort blog post. Is there any worse narcissistic attention seeker out there?

last week i broke down and bought the 20$ subscription because i was excel lazy and wanted to see what supposedly state of the art AI could do to help me parse my kids baseball team&#x27;s statistic... and boy am i confident more than ever that humanity is not doomed and there won&#x27;t be AI taking over jobs anytime soon.<p>the amount of time i spend typing out &quot;you&#x27;ve changed something i didn&#x27;t ask&quot; is incredible, the only positive i get is that it&#x27;s fun to verbally abuse AI for how inaccurate and deliberate with errors it is.<p>i would not take a single answer from chatgpt without actually doing a sanity check. if it throws up on an excel that has 12x30 data matrix of one dimensional data, i couldn&#x27;t imagine the garbage it spews out if you&#x27;re using it to modify something actually business essential.

Do the comparisons to PhD-level as a marker for some quantity of how &#x27;smart&#x27; a system (by which I mean the current colloquial usage of &#x27;AI&#x27;) really make sense?<p>I thought a PhD was ultimately a representation of a body of work that a likely-smart person produced in order to a) learn the state of the art in a narrow domain, b) practice research methodology, c) hopefully push the boundary of human knowledge in that area. Which is not to say that PhD candidates and holders are not &#x27;smart&#x27;, just that PhD represented the work and not just the person after an IQ test.<p>Or is the comparison valid and the goal is for AI (again, current colloquial usage) to be able to push the boundaries of human knowledge? Or perhaps it would be human-machine-knowledge at that point?

It&#x27;s pretty amusing that we&#x27;re now at the stage of AI denialism where the goalposts are &quot;AI is only smart if it can get a PhD in an area it hasn&#x27;t been trained in!&quot;<p>Looking forward to where we move the next goalposts next. Perhaps AI isn&#x27;t smart because it can&#x27;t invent a cure for cancer in 24 hours? Or it can&#x27;t challenge our core understanding of the laws of physics?

The giveaway that Marcus is generating slop for consumption by unsophisticated AI-haters is that he doesn&#x27;t bother to mention what models&#x2F;options involved.

If you think AI is “smart” or “PhD level” or that it “has an IQ of 120”, take five minutes to read my latest newsletter (link below), as I challenge ChatGPT to the incredibly demanding task of drawing a map of major port cities with above average income.<p>The results aren’t pretty. 0&#x2F;5, no two maps alike.<p>“Smart” means understanding abstract concepts and combining them well, not just retrieving and analogizing in shoddy ways.<p>No way could a system this is wonky actually get a PhD in geography. Or economics. Or much of anything else.
