It depends on how you see it. I agree with you, generally, but in the limit, if you memorised all possible instances of multiplication, then yes, you could certainly be said to know multiplication. I've not just come up…
Mwell, the article claims, and points to work that also claims, that large language models can actually be made to perform arithmetic well. They need fine-tuning, verification, chain of thought prompting and majority…
