I'm curious about the etymology of "writing a test" vs "taking a test." I know they refer to the same action but every time I hear "writing a test" I think Sabrina is actually creating the test herself.

Reactors are supposed to be critical because that's the point where the fuel undergoes fission. You're thinking of Super Critical, where the fission spirals out of control and essentially burns too much fuel at once, instead of a controlled burn. It's like a log being on fire vs the equivalent amount of sawdust being tossed into a fire. One of those is burning much bigger, much faster.

Here's a fun way to think about AI that really opened my eyes a while ago: Imagine you are put in a library full of every book that could ever and has ever existed. All your needs are taken care of, but there's just one problem --all the books are written in a completely alien language. It has ZERO roots to whatever languages you know now, so extrapolating anything just isn't possible. now imagine you work as the librarian at this alien library, and outside there's a queue of people (that you cant see) making requests for books you cant understand, speaking it a language you cannot understand. What do you do? you guess, right? you start giving random books to orders until over time you get a few right. You learn that x word correlates to y symbol on the spine of the book, or something like that. Over time, you get REALLY good at this, and you can fulfill every order to satisfaction... But can you read the books? Could you, ever, read the books? could you ever even have any idea what's in them? Sure, you figure out what symbols pair with spoken words, but ALL of it is alien to you, so could you ever know what that symbol actually means? the word? To us, standing outside of the library, AI may look super intelligent and efficient. It may look like it understands what we want from it. it may look like it knows everything. But all it knows (and will EVER know) is how to answer questions the way it knows we want it too.

What’s scary is how AI can never say “I don’t know”. It’s giving its best guess but never phrasing it as a guess. So when it comes to factual information, we have to train ourselves not to believe AI, it will need to be fact checked.
@tibees
Thanks for including me in this video! The question of how we measure intelligence for humans and non-humans is interesting, and it's my guess that once AI comes close to 'out-thinking' us in some regard, we will move the goalposts of what we consider true intelligence to be.

It's crazy how printer ink cost more per gallon that human blood

"this was supposed to be an easy video," Sabrina says. Again. Sabrina, you always dig to the bottom of the questions you ask yourself. No matter the subject, it will never be an easy video <33
@nihilisticgacha
I find it eerily similar how both modern education and AI training using standardised tests to evaluate students’ ability/intelligence, since both limit how they learn by memorising without understanding
@outsanely
This issue where AI fail at answering novel or reasoning based questions is something I've actually had to warn my students about- I teach physics, and specifically I focus on solving interesting and complex problems, which AI like ChatGPT can't seem to handle. I've always thought that part of this is that the training data for ChatGPT involves people asking for help on similar questions by sharing what they tried (and thus what didn't work). It's honestly quite interesting- I gave ChatGPT a "textbook" problem, and then gave it the same type of problem but written in a way that required more reasoning and logical arguments to answer. It did okay-ish on the first (still got it wrong, but got 2/3 of the way through before it went off the rails), but the second question it both got wrong and got wrong very early in its answer (like 1/3 of the way). It also culminated in my favorite error ChatGPT has made so far; it added 2 + 0.5 and got 5 😂
@Jaigarful
Back in college for Mechanical Engineering (over a decade ago), I had a professor who said that he didn't expect us to memorize all the formulas. Instead he valued understanding how to use the formulas and when to apply them. While nursing students had to memorize all sorts of information on the human body, we didn't. We had cheat cards. It was awesome to get an exam where you had to work out a problem you've never seen before, but you had the tools to solve it.
@that_one_salad9778
Sabrina may not have the best scores on these tests, but at least she's willing to constantly challenge and verify whatever her brain decides to come up with.
@Simon-ow6td
My main problem with AI information engines like chat gpt is that it can very easily be confidently wrong about almost anything and if I don't have enough foundational knowlege to recognize when it gives suspect answers (especially if it has given multiple good answers before), or I have a bias that is consistent with the wrong answer, it is really easy to create missinformation that sticks around.
@antenna8836
This is, unironically, one of the best sponsorships in a video I've ever seen. Entirely unique consumer story, will legit consider them. Definitely want to see more like this! And the idea as to "we don't know what we don't know" has suddenly spiked my interest in Socrates again, with the Oracle claiming he was wise to know the limits of his wisdom. Maybe that's the next step in AI -- getting it to admit ignorance.
@tannenbaumxy
Watching this a few days after o3 got 87.5% in the ARC-Challenge. It's mindblowing how far AI has progressed within a year
@OllAxe
I've tried using LLMs and always found that they were really terrible at answering unique or complex questions. As such, I concluded that AI just hadn't come as far as the general public believes, but I didn't understand why there was such a discrepancy between the public image and my observations. This video did an amazing job discovering and explaining that discrepancy! I think most people probably to use LLMs like a natural language version of a search engine, and for that purpose, it's works really well, often better than asking the average person. That of course assumes the average person has to go off only the knowledge they have and can't utilize outside resources, which is usually not the case anymore, so a human equipped with Google is usually far more capable than a LLM even if a bit slower.

Absolutely loved doing the voiceover for this video. Thanks for having me Sabrina and making such awesome content! :)

I see AI, I see Sabrina, and I expect chaos
@Kimmie6772
Thank you for verbalizing why i get agitated when people act like ChatGPT is some godlike intelligence. It is a language learning model. Yes, language and memorization is half the effort of how human intelligence evolved, but it is not the whole story. Ask GPT to do complex logic or math, explain their answers, and easily sway them to see where this quickly falls apart. It is generating responses it thinks you want to see or what you think is correct, nothing more. Edit: Very insightful conversation in the replies. You learn something new everyday.
