Some folks I suppose take a religious fervor, but for my I look at how a child learns -- through the observation of cause and effect -- and know the current architectures don't support how we have husbanded animals and reared children for eons.
The inherent capacity for true self-directed learning may well be there, but it isn't hit yet in what we see.
GPTs are still neat.
- tayo42 3y agoI'm not sure that's true. There is reinforcement learning and its branches. I think that's part of how they do ai for chess, go, star craft etc...
- seanhunter 3y agoWhy do you think computers would most efficiently learn the way we do? They don’t do anything else (eg arithmetic as an obvious example) anything like humans normally do.
- tomrod 3y agoA deterministic algorithm that adjusts floating point errors for varying chipsets is more complex, agreed. So current implementations are not terribly simple for arithmetic. That highlights my point, I believe, that the only examples of actual learning, where one can make true inferences about the world without the need to collect the entirety of the internet to build transformers, we have to date are wetware, not software.
