> The biggest lesson that can be read from 70 years of AI research is that general methods that leverage computation are ultimately the most effective, and by a large margin. So, in the long run, we'll just throw more and more hardware at AI, forever. > The second general point to be learned from the bitter lesson is that the actual contents of minds are tremendously, irredeemably complex... we should build in only the meta-methods that can find and capture this arbitrary complexity. So AI will permanently involve throwing a ton of compute at a ton of data. I guess it's time to buy stock in computer hardware manufacturers.
