    These models are pretty much always extrapolating [0]

    Whether the extrapolation is crude/low-rank or astute/high-rank is a question of memorization vs generalization. That gets into the question of whether or not the model is over-fitted or under-fitted. There are certain heuristics borrowed from high dimensional statistical physics that can be used to guess how good the test performance of a model will be on a typical task without even knowing what the test data is [1].

    Originality for me means finding better answers to sub-tasks, and then combining those answers together in a better way. This is the nirvana of cross-entropy minimization - the emergence of capability results from gaining the ability to amass a wider range of skills, improving upon them, and percolating those improvements towards multiply the leverage of other skills.

    How long such a thing can keep improving with current tech, who knows, but you should really think critically about whether that sounds just like interpolation through the corpus.

    One of the things I love about physics is that, in addition to probably being my favorite of study in it's own right, it seems that a lot of the conceptual/mathematical content carries over and contributes to other fields. One example I've come across recently can be found here: https://github.com/CalculatedContent/WeightWatcher and here:
