I'd stand by the bitter lesson ( http://www.incompleteideas.net/IncIdeas/BitterLesson.html http://www.incompleteideas.net/IncIdeas/BitterLesson.html ) here. of course it feels better to do something clever, finetune models, do clever agents or novel algorithms instead, ... only to become beaten by the next larger scaled general model.
- EGreg 3y agoWhy be clever at all anymore?
- CuriouslyC 3y agoYup. With AI being the cleverest, the value comes from having vision and being able to do long term planning.
- EGreg 3y agoBut can't AI do that too? I think AI can easily have more strategy and patience and coordinate 10000 swarm members than you. Why will we need you to do anything at all?
- CuriouslyC 3y agoYou have to keep in mind that humans have a lot of hardwired advantages, and we take in a massive amount of multimodal data. Even when the best high level planning AIs are smarter than humans across the board, they'll still be vastly more expensive to run, so humans will continue to have value barring a complete revolution in computing efficiency.
