“Good morning,” the little prince said politely.
“Who are you?” said the little prince.
“Be my friends. I am all alone,” he said. But there's only the echo(回声).
“What a strange planet!” the little prince thought. “And the people have no imagination.
They repeat whatever one says to them...On my planet I had a flower. She was always the first to speak...
After walking for a long time through sand, rocks and snow, the little prince at last arrived at where people lived.
"Good morning," he said.
He was standing before a garden, full of roses.
"Good morning," said the roses.
The little prince looked at them. They all looked like his flower.
"Who are you?" he asked.
"We are roses," the roses said.
He felt very sad. His flower had told him that she was the only one of her kind in all the universe. Here were five thousand of them, all alike, in one single garden.
"She would be very angry," he said to himself. "If she saw that...she would cough a lot, and she would pretend that she was dying, to avoid being laughed at. I should nurse her back to life. If I did not do that, she would really allow herself to die..."
Then he went on thinking to himself, "I thought that I was rich and had a special flower in all the universe, but all I had was a common rose, which doesn't make me a very great prince."
He lay down in the grass and cried.

人工智能认为单词strawberry里只有两个"r"
A social media conversation is popular. It's about counting the number of "r" letters in the word "strawberry". ChatGPT thinks there are two "r" letters in the word "strawberry". In fact,other AI models (模型) also have trouble with this basic counting task.
How can these powerful AI chatbots have trouble with such a basic question? It comes down to their unique way of understanding text.
When it comes to understanding text, humans and AI are quite different. For us, "strawberry" is easily understood as a string of characters(一串字母). _A Therefore, it's simple to count the letters. AI models, on the other hand, don't see words in the same way. _B They rely on a process(过程) called tokenization(分词). This process breaks down text into smaller units, or tokens. _C These can be the whole words, parts of words, or even single characters. _D For example, "strawberry" might be tokenized as "straw" and "berry". It might even be marked as a single token if the word is often in the training data.
When you ask AI to count letters, it won't examine the characters themselves. Instead, it sees larger parts, like "straw" and "berry", _▲ misses the detailed breakdown humans easily see.
In our AI-driven world today,we increasingly rely on large language models for quick answers and ideas. These powerful tools have their limitations(局限性), and they don't always get the details right.
Understanding how AI works and its limitations helps us to use these tools more effectively.
The strawberry test is a good example of how important it is to check and sometimes double-check the information from AI models. Even the "smartest" models can make simple mistakes.
根据短文内容,回答下列问题。(每小题答案不超过13个词)
1. What basic counting task do AI models have trouble with?
_______________________________________________________________
2. The sentence "That depends on the model's training." is missing. Where should we put it, in A, B, C or D?
_______________________________________________________________
3. Which word can we put in "▲" in Paragraph 4?
_______________________________________________________________
4. What does the underlined word "they" refer to?
_______________________________________________________________
5. What can we learn from the strawberry test?
_______________________________________________________________
