I strongly suspect the first AGI will come sooner than expected on the back of a "glue" AI that can intelligently bond together a web of narrow AIs and utilities. I got access to the wolfram plugin for chatGPT, and it turned it from a math dummy to a math genius overnight. A small step for sure, but a hint of what's to come.

Imo your post fundamentally misunderstands a few things, but mainly how Wolfram works. Wolfram can be seen as a "database" that stores a lot of human mathematical information (along with related algorithms). Wolfram does not make new math. A corollary here is that AGI needs to have the ability to create new math to be truly AGI. But unless fed something like, e.g. the Principia, I don't think we could ever get a stochastic LLM to ever derive 1+1=2 from first principles (unless specifically trained to do so).

Keep in mind that proving 1+1=2 from first principles isn't even new math (new math would be proving the Poincaré conjecture before Perelman did it, for example).

Am I the only one with an uneasy feeling about all these advancements? Are we going fast or is it just because of the buzz? I have a hard time separating the two. It’s very exiting and I want to keep being exited. I don’t want to become terrified.

What things can this tech do which scare you?

Everyone can see the writing on the wall that they need to be a part owner of the production, because the worker will not be needed. So its a land grab in every direction right now for the thing that is going to co-opt the means of production.

> because the worker will not be needed.

I'm pretty sure this is not obvious.

There will be no AGI during our lifetime.

It seems weird to me that people that should understand how ML works (e.g. sama) instead of educating laypeople about about how this actually works and the huge limits the technology has, start talking nonsense about AGIs like some random scifi fan at a convention. Depressing.

I'll take the other side of that bet

Being terrified doesn’t serve much purpose at this point. We are going too fast. Have been for years. This is just the first clear indication. Braking is fatal, but some seem pretty hell-bent. Deceleration is complicated, and it seems highly unlikely that there would be sufficient consensus for true deceleration. Local deceleration is simply waiting for the acceleration occurring somewhere else to overcome your effor…

Have to reply a second time: It does serve a purpose. There is a purpose in fear and the purpose is to either get us moving if we are complacent or to prevent us from doing things that are not good for us. So the fear may be justified. Maybe.

If the litmus test for intelligence is the ability to “create new math” most people on earth wouldn’t be considered intelligent
