ChatGPT answer: There are *two* "R"s in the word "strawberry."
- AdieuToLogic 2y ago>> A popular LLM joke at the moment is "How many Rs in strawberry?" > ChatGPT answer: There are two "R"s in the word "strawberry." Given enough instances of the "LLM joke" in a training data set, the joke itself having a consistent form (sequence of tokens) and likely followed by the answer having a similarly consistent form (sequence of tokens), the probability of the latter being produced as quoted is high.
- imtringued 2y agoThere is a lot of broken English on the internet and yet LLMs are better at English than the average native speaker. This failure mode has nothing to do with the training data.
