🧵1 One test I use for LLMs is to write classical Arabic poetry about a certain topic. It's a hard task given that the choice of words should not only meaningfully reflect the chosen topic but also comply with a complex set of constraints (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabic…)
2 So far all LLMs flunked this task. The results are typically good content but messed up prosody. Trying @OpenAI o1-preview today gave me for the first time an output with a 80-90% correct prosody. What is interesting is that the thought process was in English 🤯
3 below are the results of 4o, o1-mini and o1-preview. 4o and o1-mini are both bad prosody (ok content). o1-preview is the only one with a good start for a poet to edit. If you are Arabic speaker, feel free to comment, agree or disagree! end of 🧵
