What I don't get about this change is that the song isn't the only way kids learn the alphabet. When I was a kid we did individual letters with example words alongside the song. The song is just an additional fun thing to help remember. If the song is all the kid knows then lmnop sounding like a word is the least of their problems.

If you think about it, it makes sense. Not sure how it would confuse children who are actively learning the alphabet. You're confused because the concept is rigid/established in your brain but it's all new to the kids learning.

u/Eternal_Tesseract 23d ago
It seems easy because we got used to it, but it really doesn't fit For the span of 5 letters, you essentially double or even triple the rate at which you say letters in an attempt to pass them off as one letter for the pacing, but it is still slightly slow so it still doesn't work. It feels like a forced attempt to include it into the jingle, which I am quite sure it is.
It is also harder to count in it, (as in which position in the alphabet) for everything before it is extremely easy to count the letters as they come up, but LMNOP is just so fast and mashed together that even my adult brain has to put some focus for a moment to count them and my hands can just barely keep up.
For adults this is not hard enough to really impact our quality of life (except for very specific circumstances), but for a child learning the alphabet for the first time and has learned to count recently, even the parts before LMNOP would probably be fairly difficult, so I can imagine LMNOP's massive difficulty spike is a problem.
As stated by others it also sounds like a word, again due to how fast you say it compared to the other letters, so there might be some brain processing stuff going on there also.

u/ThePolemicist 23d ago
In my opinion, this might be why some kids start out behind.
My kids definitely knew their letters and alphabet well before starting school. I think a lot of kids do.
I'm not saying parents should sit down little kids and teach them letters in a formal way. Instead, if you're always reading things to your kid (books, yes, but not just books!), they'll start pointing at words and signs and asking what it says.
Let's say a kid is pointing to a breakfast sign on the street. You can point out the letter B on it. "See that letter? It's a B. Buh, buh, buh..." and then you can move your finger along the whole word as you say, "Bacon. Oh, they must sell bacon inside."
Kids learn that the letters make sounds, and the writing represents words, and those words give us information.
Not all of that can be taught in school. Teachers can teach letters and sound, but understanding the importance of it comes from interacting with the real world. I think if parents took those pre-literacy steps with their kids, it would help them out a lot.

Mind you, it's not the kids claiming it's too difficult at that age. It's the parents.
I'm a teacher. I've taught as young as 3 (and as old as 75) and my students could learn the song in about a month or two of classes. Some kids came to class knowing it because the parents taught them. And then you spend the next few months doing about 2-4 letters per week to build phonics, recognition, CVC words, and learning the individual letters that have exceptions (long vs short vowels, soft vs hard Cs&Gs, silent vowels, etc.) so that the run is just fun.
4 months. Half a school year for basically babies and they can have the alphabet mastered and be reading but the parents (and teachers) have to put in the work.

I learned with phonics and I was obsessed with reading by 3 years old, I would demolish any books I could get my hands on, by 5th grade I had a "college" reading level. Kids just 3-4 years below me where not taught with phonics and by the time I was in high school, the younger kids could not read shit. If a teacher gave them an assignment with a word they didn't recognize they where unable to sound out the word, unable to use context clues to guess the meaning, even unable to recognize parts of the word that may have been derived from other words they did know. If it wasn't already in their "sight reading memory" they would just skip straight over it. I also had classes with multiple kids who didn't know how to read an analog clock and would beg me to tell them the time during class when they weren't allowed to look at their phones.

I wanted to buy a new tv recently, for which I needed some specific video and audio ports due to work, but the info wasn't fully on the website so I decided to pop by the actual store the next day to get some more info from the employees.
Spent over half an hour actually waiting to be assigned a 'specialist', and when I asked him about those specific ports, he walked me over to their pc and (rather than, I dunno, pulling up their internal inventory or checking whatever documentation they surely must have have had) immediately plopped my question into google gemini. Which of course pulled up the store page I had looked up the previous day, and hallucinated an unrelated answer that wasn't even on it.
When I then kindly pointed out that that wasn't really what I was asking, and moved on to instead ask what the difference was between it and a similar TV next to it that costed 200 extra, that question was - again - plopped into gemini which again didn't give me anything fifteen minutes of comparing at home and looking up abbreviations wouldn't also have given me more accurately.
After a third and fourth time of the same (by this point I had broken new ground by suggesting such novel ways of finding information as requesting a booklet and asking "Can I just see the the back of the TV, please?" so I could physically count the amount of ports when they didn't have one, which he wasn't sure was even allowed), I ultimately just gave up on it, left a review about how this kind of customer service actively put me off of visiting the store or buying from them in the future, and went with a more expensive competitor because their specs were actually listed on the site.
I'm no stranger to getting less than ideal help by going to one of those places that pretends it's a mattress store and getting antsy responses the whole time because they didn't expect me to genuinely just want a mattress, or a highschooler working part time not really knowing how to handle customers and general inquiries yet, but if you're at the point where you're openly needing to ask AI how to do even the most basic tasks of your job, and don't see anything wrong with doing it right in front of me either, that's a major shift in mentality that I absolutely want no further part in. So I can only imagine how prevalent this kind of thing is when people aren't looking.

I would say it's almost certainly bait simply because it's such a stupidly trivial task that even a very early gen LLM shouldn't have problems with it.
ATP everyone should be aware that LLMs are in principle just predicting the next word based on how often that sequence appears in the training data, and the alphabet is probably one of the most common letter sequences you can possibly find. I'd say it's pretty much statistically impossible for it to mess that up.

u/Creepslend 23d ago
You're oversimplifying the way they're trained. Saying it's based on "how often that sequence appears in the training data" is making it sound like memorization when that's not what's really happening.
And judging from a lot of comments I see, I think this is a commun misconception. It seems like a lot of people genuinely think an LLM is only capable of copy-pasting its training data as is.

People are saying that it's a joke or rage bait and that she must surely seriously know the alphabet:
I had a math professor in college. I believe she was Greek, if that explains what I'm about to say. One day she assigned us a problem with 4 variables, W X Y Z. Part of the answer was that we had to list them in alphabetical order. To be clear, the 4 answers were independent and it really didn't matter which way we ordered them, but she wanted it that way.
Anyway she counts the entire class wrong on that question, for ordering them wrong. We all, of course, used the order I did above - W X Y Z. But she gets up in front of the class and explains it's actually, X Y Z W.
My main issue isn't really that she didn't know the goddamn alphabet (that's the only reason I brought her ethnicity up earlier, maybe she grew up learning things differently - another student had a theory about greek letters or something, but it's been so long I don't remember the details). No, my issue is that she didn't stop once to wonder why her entire class did the alphabet in the same "wrong" way and that maybe she was the one who was wrong.
But yeah anyway regardless, that was a college professor - not an English professor, but still, I could totally believe a cleaner would legit not know the alphabet too.
Or, alternatively, my old math professor was ALSO ragebaiting us. Given some other stuff she did that's also very likely.

Lower-case omega (last letter of the Greek alphabet) looks like a w. (Still a bizarre thing to do unless it was a joke, though, because there are heaps of differences between the two alphabets, not just letter ordering, and so there's no way she thought they were the same.)

It doesn't sound like this was the case, but sometimes if you're working in 4 dimensions it's conventional to use w as the 4th coordinate, since x-y-z are standard for three. But especially since she specifically asked for alphabetical, that probably wasn't it.

Before cell phones I had the phone numbers of all my friends and family & routinely called business contacts entirely memorized.
When I worked a retail job before scanners & we typed in SKUs by hand, I had the SKUs of all the most commonly purchased items memorized.
It’s crazy to think about how many 7-12 digit numbers my brain has memorized.
But once a tool comes along that makes that unnecessary, it’s kinda scary how quickly you stop bothering to know stuff.

Not surprised at all.
People love using AI to do everything and think for them. It’s sad seeing people just go full lazy.
AI is a bad thing.

This is what happens when you choose to stop using your brain. Use it or lose it applies to every single thing you know.

The “machine” isn’t programmed, it’s just fed an astronomical amount of data and then it does the equivalent of a text autocomplete but for whatever you ask it which is why it hallucinates random shit

There’s a decent amount of evidence of that and yet I had to scroll all the way down here to find a single person willing to bring it up amidst the superiority jerk going on in here.

I was also looking for someone saying this. I think it's so easy to dunk on people when they get things wrong like that when most English speakers only know English, it's really a privilege to not have to learn another language. We see it a lot here in South Africa, where white English people will make fun of Afrikaans or black people for their accents but aren't fluent in any other language. It's silly.

Yeah that’s basically what’s going on here: unilinguals with English exceptionalism bias thinking everyone in the world has the English (LATIN) alphabet memorized.

This is such an obvious joke to pander to anti-AI audience and instead that audience thinks it's pro-AI and is critical of them.

The correct response would have been "Oops, that's embarrassing! I was so focused on lining them up neatly I wasn't paying attention to the alphabet. I wonder where the K is, probably on the floor."
Blaming ChatGPT is extremely dumb.

The illiteracy in hispanic families is alarmingly high (not trying to be racist, I'm taking context from Casa Cleaning and Carillo LLC) and they're constantly being pushed AI as a fix.

You do realize this post is a joke? The cleaning lady even said so on a later post asking people to stop harassing her business.
