I think ‘GPT-3 can’t do parity checking’ isn’t quite right. It can clearly pattern match the algorithm, almost perfectly. It’s just a little mistake prone. Here, I invented a syntax for having it evaluate parity on each pair of digits. It...almost gets it right.⁠:

Annotations sorted by machine learning into inferred 'tags'. This provides an alternative way to browse: instead of by date order, one can browse in topic order. The 'sorted' list has been automatically clustered into multiple sections & auto-labeled for easier browsing.

Beginning with the newest annotation, it uses the embedding of each annotation to attempt to create a list of nearest-neighbor annotations, creating a progression of topics. For more details, see the link.
