    >> Inside OpenAI’s Reboot

    by YeGoblynQueenne
  • AGI on static Neural Networks?!

    The list of requirements to have AGI is pretty long, and already that first one inconsistency makes the "hmmmm" bell sound.

  • Yeah and the romans were 80% of the way to a steam engine. It only took another 2000 years to complete it.

  • Sounds like they haven't heard of the Pareto principle.

  • Claiming AGI when they don't even have the best performing LLM out is a bit bold :p

  • From the author:

    "OpenAI’s charter defines AGI as “highly autonomous systems that outperform humans at most economically valuable work.” Its leaders won’t quite declare they’ve reached that threshold. But they no longer speak about it as a distant abstraction. Chief research officer Mark Chen estimated OpenAI is “80% of the way” to AGI. Brockman said that viewed from two years in the future, this may be remembered as the moment AGI was created. Altman told me that OpenAI was “not quite yet” there, but that by the end of the year the company would have an internal system he would call AGI."

    When will that internal system make it out to the public? Or should it ever be released to the public is probably the better question...

  • And there we are, on another nudge to the verge of dystopia, to be added to the many that raised in these decades:

    > It’s a whole menu of new ventures for a company that recently vowed to ditch distracting side quests. Asked to sum it all up, Brockman described the vision in two words: “personal AGI”. He imagines billions of people with superintelligent personal assistants, just waiting for direction. “You have almost an AGI, maybe soon truly an AGI, in your pocket”, he says. “What is it you want?”

    A consultant in presumably a non-anonymous context, owned by an enterprise - an entity that can collect personal information and resides outside one's premises. It takes a huge tidal wave of immaturity to suppose that as aproblematic.
