The new model came out yesterday. GPT-4. It's noticeably smarter. It catches its own mistakes now, sometimes.

Tonight I asked it how Band I and Band II might have worked together in practice.

It said: "One way to think about it: Volume I is the alphabet, and Volume II is the order."

Almost word for word what Hanna said a week ago.

Funny coincidence. Maybe it's a common way to talk about cipher tables. Maybe I said it to the assistant first and forgot. I've been talking to it a lot.

I'll tell Hanna. She'll like that.
