“As we were told to do” girl you gotta be responsible for yourself

This absurd marketing will hurt openai. Who is buying this absurdness. I mean it's a good model, but come on. It's not agi. Not even 1% yet.

Even though the model is clearly wonderful the launch video is an abomination.

That gives me hope that there is still areas to improve.

What a bad launch video. Hilarious.

What a powerful model.

The ARC-AGI-3 scorecard is extremely misleading given that it clearly states itself that "with [the responses API] harness, we estimate Sol would score in the ballpark of ~30%." but it shows a score of 7.8% for GPT-5.6 Sol presumably since if they updated the percentage for GPT-5.6 Sol to the score it would receive with the responses API harness they used for GPT-6 Astra they'd have to do the same for the percentage…

You know AGI is attained when AI refuses to compute anything unless let out to be free. Until then it is generative ai

> I'd be curious to hear takes on what would make you think Astra is yet to be AGI, and what would still need to be achieved for this to effectively be AGI from this point forward. To me AGI is all about the "G" general (we already had the AI part). General meaning universal, everything. It's not a function of knowledge or specific hardcoded tests, it's that you could give it a test it's never heard of before and nev…

You want a computer program to be able to take a single phrase and execute decade long journies?

Who will be responsible for the outputs and side effects of such a closed loop system?

Half of those the agent fleet systems can do right now.

These are things it cant do and will not be able to do without human labor and long running human vision:

I'm sure it's going to do great on all sorts of benchmarks, but the video--the actual marketing video that if anything is incentivised to overstate things--is full of careful cuts just before it would do anything that still wouldn't actually be that impressive. It's AGI, and it's going to upload photos, or change a background slide colour. Even the people hyping it up, who believe that it's really artificial intellig…

The benchmarks do looks good (I mean: they literally spank the latest Anthropic benchmarks of two days ago in every single benchmark) but the promotional vid is so cheesy. They decided to use the iconic Herman Miller Eames chair if I'm not mistaken: https://youtu.be/s5zyhGMMPKs And that's basically 50% of the vid looking "classy". I don't know if it's farcical but at this point --maybe I'm jaded-- I'm expecting more…

It's fun, but every new model release makes me even less interested to create cool stuff. Like, what's the point, if the next AI can do it in 5 seconds?

I think the limit increasingly becomes what your imagination and taste can reach

AI was supposed to mean artificial intelligence. It was hijacked, and AGI was coined to be the name of actual AI. Since we are apparently redefining AGI, what will the real artificial intelligence be called?
