prompt: what is the third word in this sentence

gpt4: third

why are we afraid of this thing exactly?

sure, it will improve, especially with the plugin story, but the fundamental shortcomings that underpins how it actually works won't go away anytime soon.

Many people are spooked, because for the first time ever a computer can somewhat coherently understand and output natural language.

As Stephen Wolfram pointed out, all that means is we've proved natural language is a shallow problem.

GPT4 can't effing solve problems though.

To me "intelligence" is about the latter, not being able to use language (this categorization, btw, also - rather unfortunately - applies to humans).
