even your brain is not a text completion engine. Don't get fooled by ChatGPT. It is very far removed from what a human brain can do.

It excels the human brain at one thing and one thing only: Remembering the 570 gigabyte of data poured into it.

It’s astounding how you are not aware of the categorical differences between von Neumann architecture based machines and the brain.

Simple linear algebra algorithms like chatGPT are not even close to be comparable to our wet ware. The jury is still out if our brain functions are even computable (in the computer science sense)

So, cut down the hype and appreciate what chatGPT is and isn’t. It is not a stepping stone to an AGI. It is a great text completion engine.

in principle our brains are simple, they are just very finely tuned by millions of years of evolution. general AI is close.
