>I don't think so, because the needed 'quality' is the ability to traverse space. So I don't think I agree that the qualitative piece is missing. It's not the distance that keeps us from the moon but gravity. The needed quality to get to the moon is the ability to escape the gravity well, and chairs don't provide that. These models are impressive but they aren't general intelligence, and I'm not sure this type of model ever will be. If we look at it the other way around. These models have consumed more textual and graphical information than any human could ever do in a million lifetimes, and yet for most questions they don't really answer any better than the average human could. (They're much faster, so for the specific cases that they're right that's very useful). So there is some key thing missing. I would say it is the ability to understand the text they are consuming and generating.
