Powered flight certainly progressed for decades before hitting a ceiling. At least 5 decades.
With GPT bots, the technology is only 6 years old. I can easily see it progressing for at least one decade.
- PaulDavisThe1st 4y agoMaybe a different analogy will make my point better. Compare rocket technology with jet engine technology. Both continued to progress across a vaguely comparable time period, but at no point was one a substitute for the other except in some highly specialized (mostly military-related) cases. It is very clear that language models are very good at something. But are they, to use the analogy, the rocket engine or the jet engine?
