I read the abstract, and the connection to your title is a mystery. Are you using "grock" as in "transcendental understanding" or as Musk's branded AI?
No c, just grok, originally from Stranger in a Strange Land. But a more technical definition is provided and expanded upon in the paper. Mystery easily dispelled!
In that case I refer you to u/catloaf 's post. A machine cannot grock, not at any speed.
Thanks for clarifying, now please refer to the poster's original statement:
AI doesn't grok anything. It doesn't have any capability of understanding at all. It's a Markov chain on steroids.
Oh okay so they're just redefining words that are already well-defined so they can make fancy claims.
Well-defined for casual use is very different than well-defined for scholarly research. It's standard practice to take colloquial vocab and more narrowly define it for use within a scientific discipline. Sometimes different disciplines will narrowly define the same word two different ways, which makes interdisciplinary communication pretty funny.
No. It's not standard at all, especially when the goal is overtly misleading.
Maybe one or both disciplines is promoting bullshit.
Did you have a question?
Yeah what ails you, stranger?
