This has been my stance until recently. I’d ask, would Von Neumann have named these ai and neural networks? Terms of biology, mind you. Or would have gone the route of Matrix Based Linear function Optimization Techniques, etc etc.

Seeing chatgpt, and knowing gpt4 is “like seeing the face of god”, as per one developer, I’m wondering if for all practical and functional purpose we have serious intelligence coming out of these LLMs. You can’t deny how insanely good this shit is. It was giving me jokes from ancient era and they were fucking hilarious.

True AGI intelligence isn't required for task-oriented task-trained purpose built intelligence, nor does anybody know how to build one. It may arise incidentally with a sufficiently overbuilt task oriented AI, but that doesn't mean we'll have actually built one as people describe them.

Chatbots are like seeing the inner workings of language, any "face of god" is just anthropomorphism on our part.

People see these LLMs and think they are sentient or have some vast intelligence. They are a tool that is designed to be used with other tools. I appreciate what OpenAi has done with bringing visibility to LLMs, but they are by no means “the face of God”
