    They setup an LLM to play a game and it sucked at it. What were they expecting? That’s not what LLMs are made to do.

      That’s literally the point of LLMs though isn’t it? An LLM was made to read computer language and output accordingly to reach a goal. I thought that’s what all llms were meant to do.

        No, human language.

        Well, they’ve also been used for code, but that’s still designed for humans. I doubt you could use something off the shelf for binaries.

          Code is just a high-level human language.

          When “AI” grifters talk about “language” they’re using the narrowest possible definition: text that can be scraped.

          And with machine code, you got to keep track of what’s in the stack, CPU registers, … to make a sense of what the code and the next branch command does. It’s completely unalike processing human language. LLMs aren’t really set up to do it.
