Sam Altman on the barriers to Artificial General Intelligence #machinelearning #openai

[apertureinfog]

He’s talking about abductive reasoning, which we haven’t even begun to model in code

[LeoStaley]

It needs recursion within its own responses. To not simply select a word based on what should be next, but what it knows will come later.

[BlackOut]

I love how he phrases an incredible leap of technology like it's the next update coming. LLMs don't really reason at all

[El_Diablo_]

Glad he gets it. What he just said was explained by Physicist David Deutsch in his book ‘the beginning of infinity’. I thought Sam Altman didn’t get how LLMs were different qualitatively from an AGI, but apparently he does.

[AshudeepSingh]

We are talking about common sense reasoning and humans today do it pretty well given existing books and knowledge bases, without inventing new symbolic reasoning languages.

The leap of faith that means to risk entering the unknown. I'd wish to help AI achieve this skill. I really aim to be part of your team

[starshot]

I have never heard a single person that sounds like Sam. Honestly a terrifying voice

[slmille]

This seems wrong. If AGI is as good as a “median human” it just needs to be able to regurgitate what it reads. Most people don’t come up with new theories of physics. When a machine is able to, it will be an ASI not an AGI.

That second face is called Intelligence!
In short, we have advanced chatbots. Not any sort of artificial intelligence. In short, chat-GPT is not sentient or never will be.

[DmitryParanyushkin]

This interviewer should just learn to listen

[Jalalx]

It would be nice if the host stayed quiet and did not interrupt the guest when he had the attention of the audience to say something interesting. Thank you

[raywarren]

I think the public should be told the details on why Altman was sacked. What did OpenAi researches find that spooked the board in the lead up to Altman’s sacking?

[khanfauji]

So there is hope for some human jobs to be left over

[ryla]

We also shouldn't do that. I don't want a computer to outthink me

[disgustedluigi]

God I hate all of these “podcasters” who insist on using such obnoxious vocal fry when speaking. Can you not crunch your vocals constantly? Thanks.

[jlvandat]

when AI becomes capable of effectively performing abductive reasoning, the singularity is close at hand, IMO.

[TomSmith-jpes]

5 seconds to say the thing

Another 55 seconds waffling about saying the same thing.

Waste of time

[davidlythgoe]

Im afraid that this weak man has an ai at his disposal.

[Fitz]

Lol his "ai" just regurgitates whatever information it pulls that it thinks sounds relevant.... There's no reasoning, logic, or deductive reasoning being done by it and I really don't think they can actually pull that off. It's alwaya just going to be a thing that simulates intelligence without ever actually being intelligent.
