Merge notice
editSkyerise has suggest that the article On the Dangers of Stochastic Parrots: Can Language Models Be Too Big? should be merged here.
This makes no sense to me whatsoever; you could as easily argue that the article could be merged into Gebru or Mitchell's page, or all three. Clearly, doing the latter would be ridiculous.
The article exists because the paper, and the arguments it makes, is now notable in itself, as it clearly meets the WP:GNG as shown in the given cites.
I ask Skyerise to either propose that this article be merged into all three authors' articles (which would be silly, but logically consistent), or to remove the merge notice altogether. — The Anome (talk) 13:44, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
- I suggest you rename the article to make it about the term itself and the criticism of large language models. The paper isn't really the topic of the article, "stochastic parrots" is. Skyerise (talk) 13:47, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply. I am happy to make that move, and presume that you are now OK with removing the tag. — The Anome (talk) 13:49, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
- I see that you have not removed the tag. Are you arguing both that the article has a topic of its own, and that it should still be merged into the Bender article? Can you please explain your reason for the symmetry breaking choice of a single author? — The Anome (talk) 13:56, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks for the move, and the rewrite. — The Anome (talk) 13:58, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
- No problem. Much more opportunity for expansion with the broader topic... Skyerise (talk) 14:12, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
