>If you had read and understood the paper you would be able to specifically detail why that isn't so rather than say vaguely that "it is not the only thing that supports that particular claim".
Not every internet conversation need end in a big debate. You've been pretty rude and i'd just rather not bother.
You also seem to have a lot to say on how much people actually read papers but your first response also took like 5 minutes. I'm sorry but you can't say you've read even one of those in that time. Why would i engage with someone being intellectually dishonest?
> I guess i understand seeing as you couldn't have read the paper in the 5 minutes it took for your response.
You've posted the papers multiple times over the last few months, so no I did not read them in the last five minutes though you could in fact find both of the very basic problems I cited in that amount of time.
Because it's pointless to reply to a comment days after it was made or after engagement with the post has died down. All of this is a convenient misdirection for not having read and understood the papers you keep posting because you like the headlines.
> you can't say you've read even one of those in that time.
I'm not sure if you're aware, but most of those papers are well known. All the arxiv papers are from 2022 or 2023. So I think your 5 minutes is pretty far off. I for one have spent hours, but the majority of that was prior to this comment.
You're claiming intellectual dishonestly too soon.
That said, @foobarqux, I think you could expand on your point more to clarify. @og_kalu, focus on the topic and claims (even if not obvious) rather than the time

Fair Enough. With the "I'm not going to bother with the rest", it seemed like a now thing.
>focus on the topic and claims (even if not obvious) rather than the time
I should have just done that yes. 0 correlation is obviously false with how much denser the plot is at the extremes and depending on how many questions are in the test set, it could even be pretty strong.

I took it as hyperbole. And honestly I don't find that plot or much of the paper convincing. Though I have a general frustration in that it seems many researchers (especially NLP) willfully do not look for data spoilage. I know they do deduplication but I do question how many try to vet this by manual inspection. Sure, you can't inspect everything, but we have statistics for that. And any inspection I've done leaves me very unconvinced that there is no spoilage. There's quite a lot in most datasets I've seen, which can have a huge change in the interpretation of results. After all, we're elephant fitting
I explicitly wrote "~0", and anyone who looks at that graph can say that there is no relationship at all in the data, except possibly at the extremes, where it doesn't matter that much (it "knows" sure things) and I'm not even sure of that. One of the reasons to plot data is so that this type of thing jumps out at you and you aren't misled by some statistic.
