> AI is the development of machines with the ability to think and act like humans What we have today is machine learning... not this. LLM's are neat, transformers are a really useful innovation, etc. Some people like to leap to conclusions and claim that this is intelligence beyond human comprehension and it will learn to destroy is all. I think that's a bit much. If the goal of AGI is to be this we're nowhere near it. And I suspect there are plenty of people in this "AI" space that would not see it as a goal of the research. An expert system that can reason in a particular domain would be a huge advance and a useful tool. There's no need to also create autonomous agents that think and act like humans. We're pretty terrible at that on the whole.
