But most LLM's are "language" models, after all, designed to predict language. no more.

According to a new study, researchers found that a popular type of generative AI model (transformer) can provide turn-by-turn driving directions in New York City with near-perfect accuracy — without having formed an accurate internal map of the city.

Despite the model’s uncanny ability to navigate effectively, when the researchers closed some streets and added detours, its performance plummeted.

When they dug deeper, the researchers found that the New York maps the model implicitly generated had many nonexistent streets curving between the grid and connecting far away intersections.

This could have serious implications for generative AI models deployed in the real world, since a model that seems to be performing well in one context might break down if the task or environment slightly changes.


Stay alert!
I personally avoid software updates at least two major releases.
I won't be an alpha or beta tester.
