I just feel this is a great example of someone falling into the common trap of treating an LLM like a human.

They are vastly less intelligent than a human and logical leaps that make sense to you make no sense to Claude. It has no concept of aesthetics or of course any vision.

All that said; it got pretty close even with those impediments! (It got worse because the writer tried to force it to act more like a human would)

I think a better approach would be to write a tool to compare screenshots, identity misplaced items and output that as a text finding/failure state. claude will work much better because your dodging the bits that are too interpretive (that humans rock at and LLMs don't)

> vastly less intelligent than a human

I would more phrase it like that they are a completely alien “intelligence” that cant really be compared to human intelligence

		I meant that frame very deliberately. Use of the word AI is misleading people that LLMs are intelligent. They model what looks like intelligence but with very hard limits. The two advantages they have over human brains are perfect recall and data storage. They are also faster. But the brain is vastly more intelligent: - It can learn concepts (e.g. language) with an order of magnitude less information - It responds in parallel to multiple formats of stimuli (e.g. sight/sound) - LLMs lack the ability to generalise - The brain interprets and understands what it experienced That's just the tip of the iceberg. Don't get me wrong: I use AI, it is by far some of the most impressive tech we have built so far, and it has potential to advance society significantly. But it is definitely, vastly, less intelligent than us.

		Yes, currently they are both smarter and dumber than humans.

The blog frequently refers to the LLM as "him" instead of "it" which somehow feels disturbing to me.

I love to anthropomorphize things like rocks or plants, but something about doing it to an AI that responds in human like language enters an uncanny valley or otherwise upsets me.
