I’m curious about this note - only one of the listed points has anything to do with self-improvement AFAICT (“Brain Surgery”). Even if LLMs are capable of compute-constrained self-improvement, why would you be open to dismissing all your other points? Would you be so willing to don the robes and beads?
- idlewords 3y agoI find the capability of LLMs deeply surprising, so I want to track down the source of the surprise before doubling down on anything (except the argument from Slavic pessimism, which the killbots will have to pry from my cold, dead hands)
- bbor 3y agoLol, fair enough - thanks for the clarification!
- WastingMyTime89 3y ago> I find the capability of LLMs deeply surprising The more time passes the more I’m convinced that what we are witnessing is that intelligence is not actually that rare or complicated and any kind of system complex enough to create emergent behaviours will end up displaying it. Very curious to see where things are going to go from there.
