"cootie catcher programming" ... ?
Apparently some places call a paper fortune-teller (below) a 'cootie catcher'. Still unclear as to how it relates. Closest I got was that it's some kind of LLM script to give users defined answers based on their questions. Maybe that mean OpenAI gave hardcoded responses, therefore lying about intelligent generation?
ty!
LLMs are much easier to understand than the people selling them want to pretend. If that's news to anybody, perhaps see if you can spot the similarities between 'paper fortune teller' logic and the models described here.
