  good decision, imo. sometimes i also get annoyed if the one i am watching becomes too sweaty completionists.

  I happily welcome our merciful and benevolent machine overlords.

    I’d take Skynet over what’s currently going on.

    Right?

    If I was OpenAI, this exactly the kind of thing I’d want written about me, especially the day after the deepseek thing….just saying.

      Its probably part of the standard severance package. Hand in your laptop, sign an NDA, take your COBRA paperwork, and fill out the AGI terror press release.

    Are we not heading towards AGI then?

      In the same way that if you start digging a hole in northwestern Spain you are heading towards New Zealand.

      Would we know it if we saw it? Draw two eye spots on a wooden spoon amd people will anthromorphise it. I suspect we’ll have dozens of false starts and breathless announcements of AGI, but we may never get there.

      More interestingly, would we want it if we got it? How long will its creators rally to its side if we throw yottabytes of data at our civilization-scale problems and the mavhine comes back with “build trains and eat the rich instead of cows?”

  The delusions of grandeur required to think your glorified auto complete is going to turn into a robot god is unreal. Just wish they’d quit boiling the planet.

    Oh man 100% this.

    A little while ago there was a thread about what people are actually using LLMs for. The best answer was that it can be used to soften language in emails. FFS.

    alternatively, the delusions of grandeur required to think your opinion is more reliable than that of many of the leaders in the field

    they’re not saying that LLM will be that thing; they’re saying that in the next 30 years, we could have a different kind of model - we already have the mixture of experts models, that that mirrors a lot of how our own brain processes information

    once we get a model that is reliable able to improve itself (and that’s, again, not so different from adversarial training which we already do, and MLP to create and “join” the experts together) then things could take off very quickly

    nobody is saying that LLMs will become AGI, but they’re saying that the core building blocks are theoretically there already, and it may only take a couple of break-throughs in how things are wired for a really fast explosion

    I also wish they’d put up or shut up, goddamn lol. Hopefully DeepSeek has lit some fires under some asses 🍑🔥

      I love how Jon Stewart put it: AI is losing its job to AI.
