Exactly. Even gpt3 is not creating new content. It is just permuting ecisting content while retaining some level of coherence. I don't reason by repeating various tidbits I've read in books in random permutations. I reason by thinking abstractly and logically, with a creative insight here and there. Nothing at all like a Markov model trained on a massive corpus. Gpt3 may give the appearance of intelligent thought, but appearance is not reality.

Are you sure?

[yters]

Yes, I would fail any sort of math exam if I used the GPT-3 model.

[CrazyStat]

GPT-3 is nothing like a Markov model.

[yters]

Same sort of generative probabilistic model idea.

All creative work is derivative.

[yters]

Not all derivative work is creative.
