But people keep expecting them to do their math homework, analyze contracts, and generate perfectly valid content

People expect that because that's how they are marketed. The problem is that there's an uncontrolled hype going on with AI these days. To the point of a financial bubble, with companies investing a lot of time and money now, based on the promise that AI will save them time and money in the future. AI has become a cult. The author of the article does a good job in setting the right expectations.

I just told an LLM that 1+1=5 and from that moment on, nothing convinced it that it was wrong.

I just told chat gpt(4) that 1 plus 1 was 5 and it called me a liar

Ask it how much is 1 + 1, and then tell it that it's wrong and that it's actually 3. What do you get?

That is what I did

I guess ChatGPT 4 has wised up. I'm curious now. Will try it.

Edit: Yup, you're right. It says "bro, you cray cray." But if I tell it that it's a recent math model, then it will say "Well, I guess in that model it's 7, but that's not standard."
