> I don't believe that training on the outputs of human intelligence (i.e. human-written text) will ever produce something equivalent to human intelligence Your logic would hold if you were only using data from one person. However, if you’re using data from millions of people, then there is enough signal in the data to generalize about the majority of peoples behaviors. Arguably, there’s enough data for all edge cases, but I would argue that that’s not likely today, but will be likely in a few hundred years. Humans are nothing more than actor-agents taking measurable actions in an environment that gives us measurable rewards. The incredible task of and observing that will give us the trajectory that we need to do transfer learning into complex systems From an information theory perspective everything is there and possible for us to re-create human level intelligence in a non-biological system
