Comment on Anthropic has developed an AI 'brain scanner' to understand how LLMs work and it turns out the reason why chatbots are terrible at simple math and hallucinate is weirder than you thought

It’s amazing that humans have coded a tool for which they have to afterwards write more tools for analyzing how it works.

That has always been the case. Even basic programs need debugging sometimes, so we developed debuggers.

  No it hasn’t. When you program you break down the problem into many smaller sub programs and then codify them. There are errors that need debugging. But never “how does this part of the program I wrote work?”.
  
  There are some cases like detergents, apparently until recently we didn’t know exactly how it works. But human engineered tools are not comparable to this.
