It can clearly do both of these things very well but human intelligence combines a multitude of interacting components and for tasks that require more than just the one it replicates it falls flat on its face.
It doesnt appear to be missing components that will can be fixed with incremental improvements to the model either.
- nomel 4y agoGPT4 was released 17 days ago. This isn't some pinnacle of AI. It's just what's being given away for free right now.
- fauxpause_ 4y agoIt’s not free
- nomel 4y agoSorry, correct. I should say "for cheap", around 70c per day.
- ChatGTP 4y agoIt’s also probably nearly a year old and constantly being tweaked and refined by humans ?
- nomel 4y agoCorrect. I'm not sure how that changes the fact that todays state of the art is tomorrows obsolete. Do you see any evidence that advancements will become negligible? The fact that there aren't any memory/attention/feedback systems in place suggests there's some pretty interesting "low hanging" fruit still up there.
- ChatGTP 4y agoWe’ll let’s see if purely intellectual machines are indeed useful.
- nomel 4y agoI think many of us are paid exactly for being close to “purely intellectual”. White collar and all. Personally, the physical aspect of my job is trending towards 0, unless you count the twitching of my fingers and the pain in my back from sitting for so long.
