CalcGPT: bringing the magic of AI to basic arithmetic
CalcGPT, created by developer Calvin Liang, breaks new ground in showing an irrefutable use case for large language models. Liang has constructed a desktop calculator powered by GPT-4. In our testi…
The site describes CalcGPT as an art installation
As a critique of AI, it probably is pretty effective - no better way of mocking ChatGPT than by having it fuck up basic arithmetic that even a five-year-old can do.
You wanna mock somebody, it helps tricking them into mocking themselves.
it cannot handle subtraction going negative
Let's just say that negative numbers remains a mystery for LLMs.
as you know, number go up
My favorite part is that as with all LLM solutions it either spits out the correct answer or absolute nonsense. This calculator will never have a floating point error or screw up the order of operations, but it will sometimes decide that 2+2 equals "either 5 or 4.0000354, depending on how you measure it" even on the minimally-spicy settings.
Lol that regenerate button on a calculator. Amazing.
Everybody knows LLMs aren't intended for use cases where a correct answer is expected. /s maybe idk
someone should race this against those mega minecraft calculators, there’s probably a youtube video worth watching
