4th author on "Training language models to follow instructions with human feedback" https://arxiv.org/html/2203.02155v1.

Pure lie?

Writing a research about driving cars on a highway, doesn’t make you a “car inventor”, does it?

  • data analysis is different from algorithm design, the later is often considered 'inventing' due to the novel nature

  • The 4th author on "Training language models to follow instructions with human feedback" is purely lying when he says he coinvented ChatGPT and RLHF because writing a paper about RLHF is like writing about driving cars on the highway, whereas ??? is like (co-?)inventing cars, which is synonymous with his claim.

    I appreciate a good hot take, I really do. But I can't parse it.
