A user shared their test experience with a new model. Key findings include:
- Fermi Estimates: The model recalled and processed an astonishing number of facts and figures to complete the estimate.
- Poetry Rewriting: When asked to rewrite Blake's 'Jerusalem' in anapestic pentameter, the model thought for a long time and largely succeeded.
- Self-Awareness: The model knew the user to a lesser degree compared to other frontier models.
