[FRIAM] Bard and Don Quixote

[Jochen Fromm]

I have asked Bard ( bard.google.com) today about Don Quixote from Cervantes, and if a large language model would be similar to a Don Quixote without a Sancho Panza.Here is what Bard replied:"In a way, large language models can be seen as Don Quixotes without Sancho Panzas. They are trained on massive amounts of text data, and they are able to generate text, translate languages, write different kinds of creative content, and answer your questions in an informative way. However, they are not always able to distinguish between reality and fiction, and they can sometimes make mistakes or generate text that is not accurate or helpful.Sancho Panza, on the other hand, is a realist who helps Don Quixote to stay grounded in reality. He provides Don Quixote with common sense and practical advice, and he helps him to avoid making mistakes.Large language models could benefit from having a Sancho Panza figure to help them to stay grounded in reality and to avoid making mistakes. This could be done by having a human being or another large language model to review the text that the large language model generates. This would help to ensure that the text is accurate, helpful, and appropriate"-J.
