Just to play devil’s advocate: we can train neural networks to model some functions exactly, given sufficient parameters. For example simple functions like ax^2 + bx + c.
The issue is that “correctness” isn’t a differentiable concept. So there’s no gradient to descend. In general, there’s no way to say that a sentence is more or less correct. Some things are just wrong. If I say that human blood is orange that’s not more incorrect than saying it’s purple.
