> LLMs pass the Turing test more convincingly than anything before
Being able to converse (or convince someone the conversation is natural) is not the same as being able to perform a technical task well. The same applies to humans as well, of course, which perhaps brings us back to the outsourcing comparison — how often does that work out great or not?
> LLMs are vastly more popular than any AI/ML methods before it
Popular is not what I'm looking for. I've seen the decisions the general public make elsewhere, I'm not letting them chose how I do my job :)
> "But they don't reason!" -- we're advancing chain of thought
Call me back when we've advanced chain of thought much more than is currently apparent, and again: for being correct in technical matters, not conversation.
