Even if AI progress all stops and we are stuck with these models, it would at least take a few years to make use them to the full potential. What gets lost in this AGI debate is how impressive are these models without even reaching it. And the places where it has been applied are just tip of the iceberg.
It's just like dot-com bubble, everyone was pumped that Internet is going to take over the world. And even though, the bubble popped, the Internet did eventually take over the world.
- danaris 1y agoLLMs are not going to take over the world. LLMs are not remotely comparable to the Internet in terms of their effect on ordinary people (unless you want to talk about their negative effects...). People keep trotting out this comparison, and as time goes on it makes even less sense, as we come to see even more clearly just how false the promises of the AI bros are. If progress stops with these models, we will be left with some interesting curiosities that can help with certain tasks, but are in no way worth the amount of resources it costs to run them en masse.
