Also, here's another one: challenge chatgpt to send you a message consisting of a single character. I got it to do it, finally, but it took about 7 or 8 tries.

- cabbageears 3y agoIt took me a single try, both times. I asked it to pick a single digit from the number sequence, which it did. I then asked in another chat, "Type back a single character only. Your pick." It gave me a star character. Maybe my custom settings?
- insanitybit 3y agoIt's funny how: a) These are all so arbitrary. None of these random tasks come along with a "and failure indicates it's not AGI because..." b) ChatGPT consistently is still doing these weird, random challenges every time I try them out Is this really it? Maybe you should try an essay because this ad-hoc approach is extremely uncompelling.
- windowshopping 3y agoI mean, what is AGI to you? What does that mean? For a quick thing I'll just copy from wikipedia: > If realized, an AGI could learn to accomplish any intellectual task that human beings or animals can perform. Alternatively, AGI has been defined as an autonomous system that surpasses human capabilities in the majority of economically valuable tasks. Can chatGPT do any intellectual task that human beings can perform? Of course I'm throwing tiny arbitrary things at it! I'm showing that it fails at simplistic text-based tasks, let alone GENERAL INTELLIGENCE. Can it gather wood and build a fire? Can it adjust the fire to keep it going? Can it come up with a joke? Can it create a new genre of game? Can it notice that the floor needs sweeping? Can it interrogate a prisoner and respond effectively to the tiny indications of what's working and what isn't? Can it notice when a movie is starting to go too long and lose the audience's attention? Can it fix a broken boiler? Can it do the laundry and fold all the clothes? That's what GENERAL INTELLIGENCE is. Suggesting CHATGPT, which outputs text based on a prompt, is getting close to GENERAL INTELLIGENCE - is absurd!!!
- insanitybit 3y agoYou're the one purporting to know that it's soooo obvious that we're nowhere close to AGI. IDK why you're asking me questions. All of this feels very unscientific, frankly. Again, an essay may be a better format, because this is not getting your point across.
- windowshopping 3y agoIf you are still missing the point and still believe this is close to AGI, then probably we just see things too fundamentally differently to communicate.
