From the article:
Quote: Also, the researchers did not evaluate the appropriateness of GPT-4 responses. So, it's all BS. Simply spewing lots of nonsense isn't a measure of creativity. Next up a math test:
Researcher: What's 2 + 3 equals?
GPT-4: 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 15, 36
Researcher: Very good; you are so much better at math than humans.
