Janelle Shane asked ChatGPT to play tic-tac-toe, and it consistently lost, while "explaining" why it did things. Given the board
O _ _
X X _
_ _ _
it ignored player 1's obvious winning move and put an O in a different corner.
The algorithm did live up to its reputation by offering pompous, long-winded, "explanations" for its decisions.
I'm told, by people who actually know the medical field, that LLMs are doing well at medical diagnosis. This latest result gives me doubts, moreso than ChatGPT inventing legal citations. At least tic-tac-toe is low-stakes.
