Actually, all AI is.
There's this whole field of AI interpretability, which is can we tell what the AI is doing?
And you sort of can, but you also can't really, right?
Like you assign a task and it just does the task.
Why is it doing it that way?
Nobody knows.
I mean, this becomes a real problem when you talk about things like, how do we market AI?
Well, if we don't know how it makes decisions, I can't tell you how to influence its marketing.
We actually have some experiments that we've been doing at Wharton where we've been finding almost everything changes the way the AI makes recommendations.
You put things in different order.
You say this article is written in Reddit versus the New York Times.
In unpredictable ways, you get outcome changes, right?
So not being able to know how the AI thinks, not that we know how humans think that well, makes it hard to know what's going to happen.
So in some ways, you're just assigning things to the AI, and then magic happens.
And we don't have a really good answer for what that magic is.
So the co-intelligence, going back and forth, the wizard thing, sort of, we give the AI the, you know, we make a spell, and then we see what comes out.
They're at least somewhat permanent.
I mean, they're permanent even because even if we had the whole reproducible chain, people wouldn't be using it anyway, right?
Like people don't use the reproducible chain of, you know, they don't verify as much as they should in any case.
But also it's just a nature of LLMs.
