Asking `escape velocity on Enceladus` to ChatGPT, it gave correct formula and still wrong result. All the hard-work of generating computable verified results for the Wolfram Engine database seems invaluable in comparison.&lt;p&gt;The deeper fact that Stephen Wolfram talks about in comparing ChatGPT vs Symbolic AI is true too. A layer deeper from ChatGPT is just a bunch of floats. So it is a lot harder to debug why the system arrived at the wrong result. For symbolic computations there might be a way to resolve how the expressions were transformed by the compiler and where it went off track, a debugging in true sense.&lt;p&gt;It is my gut feeling that we might see a next AI winter in a decade where we will finally start combining symbolic and connectionist approaches.</text><parent_chain><item><author>personjerry</author><text>I&amp;#x27;ve built some AI-powered software before, and the issue for a lot of the consumer-facing tools such as this one is that a few incorrect results voids the value of the whole system.

I love the idea of a search engine I can fund by paying directly instead of hoping Google can continue to make money off giving me stuff, but 95% of my Neeva searches result in going to Google anyways.&lt;p&gt;For a while my muscle memory when searching was to prefix with a &amp;quot;g&amp;quot; so why pay a middle man?</text><parent_chain><item><author>personjerry</author><text>I&amp;#x27;ve built some AI-powered software before, and the issue for a lot of the consumer-facing tools such as this one is that a few incorrect results voids the value of the whole system.
