My description above includes a memory store. It is a single variable that it can save and recover, and will automatically get sent back to it at regular intervals if it forgets it saved anything. Only a single text string variable is needed, as GTP-4 is smart enough to realize it can compress, pickle, etc. as many things as it needs into that.

I think we might be working something a bit similar and I agree memory is an issue. However it’s not really AGI that will emerge from this. It’s looking very useful but it’s still observable but it’s not a “mind” like an AGI. To add to your comments, I suggest that local vector store of embedding vectors of local content is how I’m going with memory issue. Langchain like. That way all previous progress is tracked and…

Please define this. ;)

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.

I've built a service for building systems like this. I haven't officially "launched" yet, but it's working and you can play with it here, if anybody is up to giving the alpha a spin: https://aistudio.fly.dev/

I really hope this is the future of coding.

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

that reminds me of this scene in irobot spooner> You are a clever imitation of life... Can a robot write a symphony? Can a robot take a blank canvas and turn it into a masterpiece? sonny> Can you? edit: i just realized OpenAI can answer both of those questions with "yes." ...

It's a fantastic scene. The childlike earnestness of Sonny asking completely deflates Spooner's rant.

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.

We've been "moving too fast" since we figured out agriculture. It's fine. The world as you know it will change irreversibly; you'll long for the simplicity of youth; you will bemoan the state of the world we have left for our children... just like every generation before us did. It'll all be fine. Enjoy the ride, it's called life, and it's better than it ever has been.

Past performance is not indicative of future results.

My definition of "mathematical genius" is simply wider than yours. To me its people who can solve math problems that 99.9% of the population can't without assistance. Which I think is a fair colloquial definition. ChatGPT went from struggling to provide the answer for 20x20 to easily being able to provide the right answer for any math problem wolfram alpha can.

> To me its people who can solve math problems that 99.9% of the population can't without assistance. You're just kind of re-emphasizing my point: ChatGPT is using Wolfram as its assistance. So really, it's acting more like a "dumb" API call, not a "math genius" at all.

I mean, what is crystallized intelligence, but that which we can call upon without having to focus on it?

I mean this honestly, no snark. When I was a kid, learning how to factor numbers was really hard. It took a lot of time and concentration to do even basic problems, and people who could do it quickly without much perceived effort were a mystery to me.

By the time I reached high school, I had enough practice that I recognized the common patterns without difficulty, and often the answer bubbled up to my conscious mind without thinking about it at all. It sure feels like my brain is making an API call to a subsystem, you know?

I disagree. ChatGPT is a clear turning point. We have not been going too fast before, at least not outside LLMs. Singularity is a belief system, it has very little to do with AI. edit: I also think if we would ever get to a point where AI gets close to a point of possibly getting out of control as you imply it would simply be banned in the US/Canada/EU/Australia. Furthermore Latin America and Africa could and would b…

Gpt plus langchain agents is quite scary It will use every tool you give it to reach the goal you give him. It will try forever if needed. I bet state actor are already plugging in tooling to register social account and automate credible propaganda. Maybe not with gpt itself, but privately hosted fine tuned models. This can win elections. You can plug wordpress and build infinite blogs with infinite post with the uni…

Humans have been doing all of this and more, for a very long time.

This simply exposes all of the cracks in the foundations of our society. There are severely exploitable issues, and we may wind up with a planet-level chaos monkey.

Ghostbusters had the stay-puft marshmallow man. Will the form of our destroyer be the woot monkey?

Why are the example outputs in the Figures ungrammatical? >A text can describe the given image: a herd of giraffes and zebras grazing in a fields. In addition, there are five detected objects as giraffe with score 99.9%, zebra with score 99.7%, zebra with 99.9%, giraffe with score 97.1% and zebra with score 99.8%. I have generated bounding boxes as above image. I performed image classification, object detection and i…

It's probably working from/stuck in some very sparse space, resulting in relatively poor output. It's a neural network after all.

Telling it to fix its grammar, in a new thread fixes it.

I also confidently assume that telling it to fix its grammar, within the original, topic specific, conversation, would noticeably harm the quality of subsequent output for that topic.

I believe you will quickly run into a barrier due to the small size of the context window. And increasing the context window gets harder and harder the larger it is. There's a sibling talking about internal memory. That's how our brains solve the issue. AFAIK, nobody knows how to train something like it.

You are right, but it is unclear to me where this limitation will fall in terms of actual abilities. GPT-4 can divide large tasks up into logical steps and instructions that can be worked on independently by other instances, and it can create "compressed" condensed explanations of it's own state that can be stored externally and repeated back to it, or passed back and forth between instances. With the unreleased 32,0…

> With the unreleased 32,000 token context window, that is really a lot of context when you consider that it can heavily compress things by referencing what it was trained on.

Also that means you can just iterate with different contexts until you can deal with the problem. How many problems need 50 pages of context on top of what gpt4 knows for solving the next step?

I agree, I suspect AGI is possible right now with a similar system only slightly more sophisticated than this one. The right "glue" for existing models, and plugins to existing data sources all coordinated in a system. GTP-4 would do the managing, and handling, and some simple template API and handler script would allow it to call instances of itself or other models, track recursion depth, and automatically remind GT…

I'm prone to agree. Your memory would still require being parsed by the language model, and for it to have a sufficient window as to allow this. Alternately, the human mind keeps, what, 7 items 'present' at a time? When the 32k variant comes out, the ability to use a side-along memory module on a running self-summarizing conversation will be even easier than it is now. I expect a more human-like memory will emerge eventually, once we can figure out a good way to project and retrieve via arbitrary weight values into it.

I'd like the "stochastic parrot" crew to explain how interactions like this somehow don't involve the extraction of and manipulation of abstract meaning.

  H: translate the following sentence to instead use olympic curling related metaphors ( do not explicitly mention curling, and do not use similes in forming the translation ): man:"I've been spinning my tires all day without getting anywhere" woman:"running out of gas?" man:"nah, I'm gassed up, geared up, oiled and revving. I just can't seem to get in the right lane, you know?" woman:"anything knocking?" man:"nah, I'm tuned just fine. I can't seem to get my GPS to connect, you know?" woman:"take a few laps without a destination, see if you can figure out the lay of the land" man:"you know, that might help. thanks barbara" 
  R: man: "I've been sweeping the ice all day without hitting the target."
  .  woman: "Losing momentum?"
  .  man: "Nah, I've got the energy, the technique, and the focus. I just can't seem to find the right path, you know?"
  .  woman: "Anything coming in your way?"
  .  man: "Nah, I'm on point with my aim. I just can't seem to get my strategy to align, you know?"
  .  woman: "Maybe glide a few times without aiming specifically, see if you can figure out the ice conditions."
  .  man: "You know, that might help. Thanks, Barbara."
It seems obvious to me that it is understanding the metaphors into underlying meanings to be able to translate them like this. I think half the pushback is just ego driven nonsense, similar to the sorts of people that make similar claims on the capabilities of animals.

It's all just an argument that "boats can't swim".

Where can I find a good, constantly-up-to-date overview of what is possible with AI?

You're already here :-)

Are you sure? There's a lot of overhyping here, and of course the reaction to that. Too much noise for me, tbh. Just give me the scientifically established facts.
