@calcifer@masto.hackers.town @lmorchard@masto.hackers.town What is parroting patterns if not inducing a pattern and then applying that pattern to new inputs?

@mudri@mathstodon.xyz @lmorchard@masto.hackers.town it depends a bit on what you mean by “inducing”; induction in this space would mean making a leap to a new pattern that’s not in the training data at all. Instead, it’s just recognizing and applying a pattern. That is cool in many ways! But it’s not inductive, nor even deductive; it’s just a best-fit matching.
