Well, what does Andrej Karpathy say? Kinda hard to respond without knowing that :)

What I said was true of GPT-2, and much more clearly the case with GPT-3. Unfortunately us plebs don’t have as good insight into later models.

Just listen to 45secs of the video I linked above if you're interested.

That is how human memories work too, though. It is well documented in the psychological literature that human memory is not the bidirectional mapping or graph you might expect from computer analogies. Associative memory in the mind is unidirectional and content addressable, which results in odd examples very similar to this "reversal curse."

We shouldn't strive for our AI to be bug-for-bug compatible with human thinking. But I fail to see how AI having similar limitations to human brains serves as evidence that they DON'T serve similar functions.
