Melanie MitchellOne of my new years resolutions is to blog (from time to time) about interesting work in AI. I'm trying out Substack for this. My first post is a perspective on recent paper by Webb et al., "Emergent Analogical Reasoning in Large Language Models".
Timothy Gowers@melaniemitchell A very nice and persuasive post.
I noticed what I think is a small typo that's worth correcting (if I'm right): in example 2 in your appendix, I think ababc should be aababc. (I also think that the abstraction ability I needed to spot that is way beyond GPT3's capabilities!) Also, in 9 I don't see how to justify rloyg -- I would go for rlyg. Much less interestingly, the arrow in 8 seems to have become an à.
Many thanks. I will correct the errors.
