Yes. It's hard to believe this paper just came out.

It reads like it was written 7 or 8 years ago.

In ML people don't read the literature, establish precedent or even formulate sound hypothesis'. Why this got posted here, I'll never know... Oh wait I know, next week someone will publish a paper claiming success with this using ChatGPT. A year later it'll be found to be bogus, but that won't stop the cash from flowing in.
