GPT-4 Can Almost Perfectly Handle Unnatural Scrambled Text
Summary: A study on GPT-4's error correction capabilities reveals its ability to almost perfectly handle unnatural scrambled text. The research introduces the Scrambled Bench, a suite designed to measure large language models' (LLMs) capacity to handle scrambled input. GPT-4 demonstrates resilience akin to typoglycemia, reconstructing original sentences from scrambled ones with a 95% decrease in edit distance, even when all letters within each word are entirely scrambled.

Why do everyone's logo fonts look the same? (2020)
Summary: Logo fonts are converging into a homogeneous heap of sleek sans-serifs across industries, from high tech to high fashion. This trend is part of a larger movement towards minimalism in the past decade. Sans-serif fonts are clean, easy to read, and work for various industries. However, the lack of differentiation in sans-serif fonts can be a problem for brand distinction and recognition. As customers seek more human connections with brands, unique logo fonts may become more important, signaling a potential shift away from sans-serif fonts.
