The article highlights persistent issues in AI models related to understanding variability in language, particularly in statistical contexts. A significant concern raised is that embedding models fail to differentiate between statistically significant findings and their opposite, leading to potential misinterpretations in research. The author emphasizes the critical role statistical significance plays in empirical research, voicing concern that such shortcomings in AI could misguide scientific decisions. This entry builds on previous discussions of ‘hallucinations’ in AI models, pushing for a deeper understanding of its implications for research integrity.
The model rated 'The results showed a significant difference (p<0.05)' and 'The results showed no significant difference (p>0.05)' at 0.94 similarity.
Statistical significance is the cornerstone of empirical research. When your model can't distinguish between 'proven effect' and 'no proven effect,' you've undermined the entire scientific method.
