On: Yann LeCun on GPT-3

This doesn't sound like a very rigorous refutation. Is this the way debunking works in deep learning circles?

Anyway, I can refute the refutal using the same standard: lots of things about the real world can be learned from just reading text, and there is no reason given why a DL model couldn't too.

It's not a very rigorous refutation. I think that's part of the reason this post is so contentious.
