    nowhere in the article do they say that they could verify what the LMM(sic!) actually came up with or how plausible it was.

    It’s not hard for any genAI to come up with some “solution”. it actually being correct is the hard part

      Indeed. What a shitty article. Not even a hint at what this mighty revelation actually was.

      Of course The LLM came up with an ultra-confident solution. It always does. I cannot not do. It probably even concluded with a 12 year old YouTube-video that perfectly explains everything 😁

      That’s where the human comes in though. The value of genAI is that it can generate outputs that can trigger ideas in your head which you can then go and evaluate. A lot of the time the trick is in finding the right thread to pull on. That’s why it’s often helpful to talk through a problem with somebody or to start writing things down. The process of going through the steps often triggers a memory or lets you build a connection with another concept. LLMs serve a similar role where they can stimulate a particular thought or memory that you can then apply to the problem you’re solving.

        I love that you just blew past what the commenter was talking about to preach the AI gospel. It’s fitting with the subject matter.

          I’m not sure what you’re claiming I blew past here. I simply pointed out that nobody is expecting LLMs to validate the solutions it comes up with on its own, or to trust it to come up with a correct solution independently. Ironic that you’re the one who actually decided to blow past what I wrote to make a personal attack.

            And that’s not what the commenter was talking about. He wasn’t expecting anything else from the LLM. He wanted to see the actual proof that any of this happened, and that it was verified by a human. All the article said was this happened and it worked. If that’s true what were the results and how were they verified?
