> “We’ve also said that our intention is to treat AGI as a mile marker along the way. We’ve left ourselves some flexibility because we don’t know what will happen,” added Altman Musk accusing Altman of “deceit of Shakespearean proportions.”
I’ve had AI influencers reaching out to inquire about the bridge I have for sale, everyday for the past 2 years. We’ll never see AGI in its original definition in our lifetimes. It doesn’t take being a rocket…company buying billionaire.
ChatGPT, without being specifically programmed to, can summarize a text, write a program, play chess, explain a joke, translate, explain or create a poem, and just handle arbitrary inputs in text. On some measures ChatGPT is better than human, on some measures, like ARC, it's worse - but even there it's not worse than the worst human.
ChatGPT is artificial, certainly, general, in the sense that it handles a wide range of inputs, and intelligent in the sense that it can solve problems and make predictions.
The intelligence of LLMs is likely to increase in the near term future - better hardware, better training, distilling to smaller models, architecture improvements, better augmentations (like RAG), better use of test time computer etc.
