I doubt LLMs will lead to AGI.
Yes, it gets "smarter" each time, more accurate, but still lacks ANY creativity or actual thoughts/understanding. "You're completely right! Here, I fixed the code!" - proceeds to copy-paste the original code with the same bug.
LLMs will mostly replace:
- search (find information/give people expert-level advice in a few seconds)
- data processing (retrieval of information, listening and react to specific events, automatically transforming and forwarding of information)
- interfaces (not entirely, but mostly augment them, sort of a better auto-complete and intention-detection).
- most content ideation and creation (will not replace art, but if someone needs an ad, a business card, landing page, etc., the AI will do a good enough job).
- finding errors in documents/code/security, etc.
All those use-cases are already possible today, AI will just make them more efficient.
It will be a LONG time until AI will know how to autonomously achieve the result you want and have the physical-world abilities to do so.
For AGI, the "general" part will be as broad as the training data. Also, now the AI listens too much to the human instruction and is crippled for (good) safety reasons. While we have all those limitations set, the "general intelligence" will still be limited, as it would be too dangerous to set zero limits and see where it goes (not because it's smart, but it's like letting a malware have access to the internet).

- conception 1y agoArguably hallucinating is a path to creativity. There are studies being done on having an llm hallucinate ideas and another validating them as a possible novel idea. LLMs probably alone won’t be agi but humanity’s intelligence is also not just the limbic system or the neocortex. Our brains are also various different styled tools interconnected to create a greater whole. To that end LLMs may be a key part of bringing together the tools we already have been built (computing, machine learning, robotics, etc) into a larger system that is agi.
- XCSme 1y agoOh, so LLMs would be just a part of the "AI". Good point.
