We acheived AGI yesterday and not a single thread about it?

OP didn't even read the actual ARC report.

It still can't solve these trivial puzzles even in high compute mode:

On my first try I beat chatgtp twice.

The classic brick in a boat on a swimming pool. It gave convincing reasoning and gave a good answer but incorrect due to false assumptions. (it's answer was pool level goes down)

I told it it was wrong and asked it to try again. It merely repeated itself.

I told it thi, and said it was still wrong. It the repeated its reasoning but gave the opposite answer (pool level goes up). Wow. Blind obedience.

So I gave it a massive clue: what if the brick is styrofoam? At which point it recognised the almost correct answer: it depends on brick density (actually, relative density). BUT it then gave another incorrect answer that the FLOATING brick would displace its entire volume (not the immersed volume for no change in level), but the water level would go up.

Wow.

Do you have license to perform drive-by colonoscopies?

Boston Dynamics and DARPA are building robots that can run with backpacks filled with 100 pounds of soldier stuff and perform gymnastics.

I have seen a couple of examples of AI generated legal documents. One was a demand letter. It stated that it is generally known that all consumer transactions come with the right to return the product if the customer was not satisfied. Most any consumer in the US knows simply from experience that this is completely untrue. Another was a very long agreement for negotiating loan agreements from an originator to a funder. I have reviewed over a hundred of these over the years. They are all very similar. This one came from a company that was more of a FinTech version of the lenders I normally see and the lender agreement was definitely generated with AI. It had about a half dozen provisions that had absolutely no reason to be in the agreement. While a bit of an exaggeration, the best analogy I can think of would be reading a mortgage agreement for your house and seeing a provision requiring you to file an SEC from 10-K every year and get FAA clearance for your driveway.

The current AI fuss reminds me a lot of the introduction of electronics and computers into the music world. The handwringing at the time was that musicians and composers would be obsolete as digitally produced music would quickly replace live performers because it was cheaper and would play music perfectly. That did not happen at all. Instead, electronics just because a new instrument and a tool for musicians.

AI is just a tool. Calling it "intelligent" because it can mimic human intelligence does not mean that we are at singularity or anything even close to it. All we really have from AI at this point is a search engine that can compose answers instead of pulling up website links and a very advanced and fast scientific calculator that can code and solve math problems. These are just tools. They are exciting in that they can potentially help speed up advances in the sciences that could be transformative. But people will still need people.

But can it run a mile in under 4 minutes? AI has no soul. The world has gone to rot.

This really doesn't mean anything. Competitive coding is a very niche and in most cases useless.

To put in comparison this is like being one of the best long drivers in the world, when the game everyone is playing is golf.

Math is very easy to calculate efficiencies because it's un objectively quantifiable.

Also to correct OP, this is by no mean AGI. And to be clear, CHATGPT technically isn't even AI. AI is a term getting tossed around because it's marketable.

take that! Noticer of things.

This place lowers average human capability a lot. Probably moved the requirement for AGI enough where it achieved it faster.

The reason we’re not talking about it is that most people’s everyday experience of AI is that it’s really dumb. Great for writing code, no doubt, but it derives wrong answers to even basic questions. Moreover, right now, AI is being fed data from a relatively sincere internet. But many people have a vested interest in AI not succeeding and they will likely fill the internet with misinformation and bad data over the next decade to protect their livelihoods. Just like robotaxis are easy targets for people with bad intentions, so too is AI. My guess is that AI regresses at some point in the next decade due to such exploits. I’m optimistic about it in the long run but think that it will grow slower than Silicon Valley is anticipating (much like just about everything from the Silicon Valley hype machine).

how is this not the post-of-the-year?

Because both of your statements are non sequiturs, a conclusion or statement that does not logically follow from the previous argument or statement. In other words--false logic.

You are saying humans can distinguish intelligent statements from the BS on LetsRun. In the real world, AI or machine intelligence has reasoning capabilities lower than humans, but faster processing capabilities. Overall, humans are more intelligent than AI and superior in performing more tasks.

O3 on high compute mode costs thousands of dollars per response.

It’s currently MORE expensive than good software engineers.

Cost is dependent on the price of energy and efficiency of compute.

You know what’s predictably been decreasing at an exponential rate since the Industrial Revolution? The cost of energy and the efficiency of compute.

The question isn’t: “can AI do my entire job today?”

Its: “can someone working with AI do my job better /faster / for less money?”

Many of you are asking the wrong question.

I’m already doing 2 jobs at once with AI and getting rewarded for it.

I don't see the contradiction between the boom being unsustainable and AI smashing benchmarks. AI has tremendous energy cost and it keeps growing. As an exaggerated example, "Singularity" may be the situation when a god-like general artificial intelligence constantly trains and re-trains more advanced versions of itself until it consumes all of the energy available in the world. That is the very epitome of "unsustainable".

Well, AI knows how to make a music video for Christmas that cooks, so there that going for it.
