We can see a very strong correlation between brain size, and overall intelligence within the animal kingdom. The larger the brain, the smarter the animal.
Effectively, GPT-3 has a bigger brain.
- neatze 6y agoyou statement is just false, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain-to-body_mass_ratio#/media/File:Brain-body_mass_ratio_for_some_animals_diagram.svg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain-to-body_mass_ratio#/medi... This without including animals such as parrots and octopuses.
- donw 6y agoI stand corrected! Pretty sure it holds for hominids, though.
- neatze 6y agoIf read this correctly, it does hold in very narrow sense, when compared within hominid evolutionary path only. In general size of brain is proportional to body mass, more sensors bigger brain, has nothing to do with intelligent effective behavior, to large extent, arguably. To best of my knowledge there is no known method that would estimate minimum amount of neurons even for simple problems, let alone complex one, however there is convergence of some form cerebral cortex between species, but octopi break this model to large extent (might we wrong here). Things get even more complicated when you account for space between individual neurons.
- ashtonkem 6y agoEven measuring “intelligence” is actually quite tricky, as it’s not a simple attribute to assign a metric to. Even comparing the relative intelligence of say, gorillas to chimpanzees involves a lot of nuance, and that’s before we dig into brain size.
