Sam Altman said it himself. He seems like a reasonable source.
If you're familiar with other fields of AI, adding more and more layers to ResNet was the hotness for awhile, but the trick stopped working after awhile.
- steveBK123 3y agoExactly, and OpenAI has been around nearly 8 years, consumed huge amount of data with tons of compute. They are just showing us the product now. It is possible they've reached some 80/20 point and he is pretty honest about how much more extendable the current approach really is. Would explain going to congress and asking for regulation (of their not-quite-there-yet competitors who they want a regulatory moat against).

- famouswaffles 3y agoAltman didn't really say that. Reading what he actually said rather than a headline, He was alluding to economical walls. He didn't say anything about diminishing returns on scaling. And if anything, the chief scientist, Ilya thinks there's a lot left to squeeze.
- gmerc 3y agoSure Sam Altman, the lying CEO of a tech company (they all do) should be listened to on this matter but not on the part where he thinks AGI within reach using his approach. Selective hearing.
