A Microsoft researcher has built a neural network in Age of Empires 2 using goats as the power source to show that Large Language Models (LLMs) shouldn’t be assumed to have human-like properties. By using an unconventional method, the researcher aimed to demonstrate how easily people attribute human qualities to non-human things and highlighted the need for more rigorous experiments to understand LLMs’ capabilities.
