#102This technology has been a true blessing to me. I have always wished to have a personal PhD in a particular subject whom I could ask endless questions until I grasped the topic. Thanks to recent advancements, I feel like I have my very own personal PhDs in multiple subjects, whom I can bombard with questions all day long. Although I acknowledge that the technology may occasionally produce inaccurate information, the…
But it often produces wrong information. If you don't know the subject (since you are learning), how do you distinguish between correct information and incorrect but very plausible-sounding information?

#103I think it's interesting that they've benchmarked it against an array of standardized tests. Seems like LLMs would be particularly well suited to this kind of test by virtue of it being simple prompt:response, but I have to say...those results are terrifying. Especially when considering the rate of improvement. bottom 10% to top 10% of LSAT in What are the implications for society when general thinking, reading, and…
I wish I could find it now, but I remember an article written by someone who's job it was to be a physics journalist. He spent so much time writing about physics that he could fool others into thinking that he was a physicist himself, despite not having an understanding of how any of those ideas worked.

> What happens when ALL of our decisions can be assigned an accuracy score?
Human work becomes more like Star Trek interactions with computers -- a sequence of queries (commoditized information), followed by human cognition, that drives more queries (commodities information).
We'll see how far LLMs' introspection and internal understanding can scale, but it feels like we're optimizing against the Turing test now ("Can you fool/imitate a human?") rather than truth.
The former has hacks... the later, less so.
I'll start to seriously worry when AI can successfully complete a real-world detective case on its own.

why are people surprised that an AI model trained on a huge amount of data is good at answering stuff on these types of tests? Doctors and Lawyers are glorified databases/search engines at the end of the day, 99% of them are just applying things they memorized. Lawyers are professional bullshitters, which is what the current generation of AI is great at
I'll get more concerned if it really starts getting good at math related tasks, which I'm sure will happen in the near future. The government is going to have to take action at some point to make sure the wealth created by productivity gains is somewhat distributed, UBI will almost certainly be a requirement in the future

#106> Given both the competitive landscape and the safety implications of large-scale models like GPT-4, this report contains no further details about the architecture (including model size), hardware, training compute, dataset construction, training method, or similar. "Open"
Actually open AI (free of pseudo-'safety' moderation too) https://open-assistant.io/
Re: GPT-4
#107> What are the implications for society when general thinking, reading, and writing becomes like Chess? I think going from LSAT to general thinking is still a very, very big leap. Passing exams is a really fascinating benchmark but by their nature these exams are limited in scope, have very clear assessment criteria and a lot of associated and easily categorized data (like example tests). General thought (particularl…
We are moving the goal posts on AGI very quickly, but it is catching up. I think we need to appreciate the nature of this milestone if we have any hope of controlling potential singularities.

#108At this rate, I have no idea what the state of things would be even 6 months down the line.
We’re rapidly approaching problems (AP Calculus BC, etc) that are in the same order of magnitude of difficulty as “design and implement a practical self-improving AI architecture”.
Endless glib comments in this thread. We don’t know when the above prompt leads to takeoff. It could be soon.

#109Prices differences with the last models:
ChatGPT API $0.002 per 1k tokens gpt-4 $0.03 per 1k prompt tokens and $0.06 per 1k completion tokens gpt-4 32k context $0.06 per 1k prompt tokens and $0.12 per 1k completion tokens
Does completion tokens mean that you also get charged for the answers that the AI gives?

My experience has been that the answers are very convincing, but not necessarily true. I would be careful asking gpt questions about abstract knowledge, less about linguistic structure.
