Tweet text: One reason AI is hard to “get” is that LLMs are bad at tasks you would expect an AI to be good at (citations, facts, quotes, manipulating and counting words or letters) but surprisingly good at things you expect it to be bad at (generating creative ideas, writing with “empathy”).
I guess the idea is that it’s bad at hard factual things, where you would expect a machine to be good at, and good at creativity and emotions, where you would expect humans to be undefeatable.
It’s badly phrased though, I agree.
