Saying ML is a field where deterministic code would work just fine conveniently leaves out the difficult part - writing the actual code.... Which we haven't been able to do for most of the tasks at hand.
replyWhat you are saying is fantasy nonsense.
They did not leave it out.

replySo it doesn't work.
And all you have to do is write an infinite amount of code to cover all possible permutations of reality! No big deal, really.

replyI'm a psychiatry resident who has been into ML since... at least 2017. I even contemplated leaving medicine for it in 2022 and studied for that, before realizing that I'd never become employable (because I could already tell the models were getting faster than I am).
replyYou would be sorely mistaken to think I'm utterly uninformed about LLM-research, even if I would never dare to claim to be a domain expert.
