Re:Can LLMs Generate Novel Research Ideas? by chaosist on Thursday September 12, 2024 @05:51PM (#41525962)
I agree but I have tried many times to intersect two ideas with a LLM that would be novel and the LLM can not do this at all.

We shouldn't expect the stochastic parrot to be able to do this though and it is unfair to the stochastic parrot.

It is like expecting a real parrot to say words it has never heard before.

No one asks that of a real parrot because we don't anthropomorphize a real parrot like we do the LLM.
