[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 month ago

It's spelled February

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

This is not AI, though. Just Excel's pattern recognition doing its job.

That's because of that typo

It'd just be eleven eleven, we don't say twenty two hundred twenty four.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 month ago

I like how your example was the year 2224 which I have never heard anyone say and not like 1994

Clearly you do not wear a monocle or a top hat but this is precisely how those of us that do do say it. Good evening madame.

1066 is a very commonly referenced date, and follows this pattern also

I mean, Im not against AI on this one.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

And fix twelve while we're at it too!

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Eleventy eleven.

Making 119 eleventy nine and 1110 eleventy ten, and therefore, this is eleventy eleven.

I did the math.

Why would you start saying hundred out of nowhere?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

15 is the true answer for 1111.

Eleven eleven follows the pattern.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Exactly! Just like how we say twenty eleven for 2011.

Now the years 2001-2009 we just don't talk about...

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Eleventy Eleven.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's simple - either you like consistency (oneteen onety one), or you're just a chaotic, inconsistent lunatic.

Meanwhile in France, chaos goblins run wild

It was the year thousand hundred ten one...

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Twas thy year thousandty hundredteen onety

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The really weird case is "two thousand" to "two thousand nine", then we revert back to "twenty ten" and onward.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

I mean what are you gonna say, twenty nine? That just sounds like 29. Guess you could say Twenty Oh Nine but that feels awkward.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I asked GPT 3.5, Claude 3, Llama 3, and Mixtrial and they all said “eleven eleven.” No fun.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

It's not that LLM will do that exact thing, they have a big dataset so they know how "eleven" works. If you trained a NN with this small dataset, than this will happen or rather it's a comment on how AIs work in general. With more complex things something like this might happen and then you have this meme to relate to

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Isn't what we call AI usually large language models, and the one thing they are good at supposedly language patterns?

As such it should get this correct IMHO.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Exactly. That's what the meme is showing. AI gets it correctly.

I think that’s how some cultures would actually say it.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Truly I tell you, Dinosaur Pile-up discovered the best way to say that number

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Why would you suddenly add in the "hundred" when you didn't do it for any previous ones?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Eleventeen eleventy one for 11111

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

One thousand one hundred and eleven not eleven, not eleven hundred eleven. Op needs to learn how to say larger numbers

oneteen oneteen.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

maybe the problem is actually that whoever made this doesn't know how to read numbers. one thousand nine hundred and ninety nine is perfectly consistent with one thousand one hundred and eleven, excluding the 11 and 12 exception of course.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Eleven tenty one?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Someday, I'm going to make finding the origin of this meme format a special interest.
