> People don't lose their minds when we look at a transformer like Sora modeling fluid dynamics for ships battling in a coffee cup and say "it's irresponsible to say the model is simulating physics from video training data."
It's completely irresponsible and a ton of people pointed it out! You ignoring the critics doesn't mean they don't exist.
OpenAI just straight up lied when they said Sora was able to accurately emulate physics. Sora is literally dumber than a bee! Unlike bees, it doesn't even understand object permanence! Things fade in and out of existence, change sizes arbitrarily, etc. The fact that it occasionally makes plausible-looking solid deformations and fluid motions is because ANNs are natural interpolators, and much of physics can be blindly interpolated, at least in short intervals. The idea that any of this constitutes a "simulation of physics" is childish.
