LLM may be a necessary step to get to AGI, but it (probably) won't be the one that achieves that goal.
- auggierose 3y agoI doubt that LLMs will give us AGI. But they have already given us more intelligence from a computer than I would have imagined to see during my lifetime.

Boeing, North American Aviation, Grumman Aircraft, McDonnell Aircraft Corporation, Bell Aerosystems, Rocketdyne... Electrical parts ran at aviation-standard 400hz. Aviation gyroscopes and aviation instruments. Structural parts made of aviation aluminum alloys. Astronauts that are all airplane test pilots. I can imagine doing Apollo from complete scratch (using car manufacturers that have to invent aluminum-handling tech starting from nothing) but it would have taken a lot more than the decade Apollo took.
