Yes, it's odd that sled dogs make terrible housepets. /s
Neural networks fundamentally aren't designed to be otherwise. The workflow that has guided their entire development for over a decade is based around expensive training and static inference.
- sheeshkebab 3y agoWhy then all the talk about AGI when fundamentals don’t even allow for it to emerge.
- jakobson14 3y agoBecause drumming up talk about AGI is a really great way to get funding for your startup. The tech industry sustains itself on hype.

- ben_w 3y agoBecause "AGI" is very poorly defined, and ChatGPT is very "general" (compared to everything before it) and matches some (but not all) definitions of "intelligent".
