The Future Path (Neuro-Symbolic & Agents) - The Weather Advisor

Review - The Limits of Deep Learning

  • In Assignment 2, we saw how powerful Large Language Models (LLMs) are.
  • However, LLMs have a major weakness: they are locked in a box.
  • They only know what they were trained on (knowledge cutoff).
  • They cannot browse the live internet, check the weather, or use a calculator.

Outside the box are icons representing the real world: a weather cloud, a globe for the live internet, and a math calculator.

The AI is disconnected from the real world.
