Yeah it's also kind of funny people discovering all the LLM failure modes and saying "see! humans would never do that! it's not really intelligent!". None of those people have children...

I don't want a computer that's as unreliable as a child. This is not what originally interested me about computers.

[IshKebab]

Nobody said you did. I'm talking about the confidently incorrect assertions that humans would never display any of these unreliable behaviours.

[tripzilch]

They don't. At least not for the duration that LLMs keep it up. They really don't.

If you want to pretend that being a 3 year old is not a transient state, and that controlling an AI is just like parenting an eternal 3 year old, there's probably a manga about that.

Maybe because none of those people are imagining children to be eternally stuck at that level of intelligence. At that age (regardless of being a parent or not) you can literally see them getting smarter over the course of weeks or months.
