What you're saying fits my understanding/expectations. However the post and the user I am replying to seem to imply different. This makes me wonder, is my understanding incomplete or is this post marketing hype dressed up as insight? So I am asking for transparency.

We are probably at the point where hype and insight aren't that much distinguishable other than what would bear fruit in the future, but I agree with you

It is not hype. You can try the model on huggingface yourself to see its capabilities. My reply here was clarifying that the examples we showed were ones where the model didn't make a mistake. This is intentional, because over the next few weeks, we will show how the concepts, and attribution we enable can allow you to fix this mistakes more easily. All the claims in the post are supported by evidence, no marketing here.
