These companies are selling subscriptions for what is basically AGI, yet you think they should have the same valuation as Crocs (yes, the footwear company) ?

  Regardless of the marketing material, LLMs are still just using probabilities to guess what the next token is.

    you think it should be deterministic?
    • bigfishrunning 4mo ago
      If LLMs were configured to be deterministic, instead of the current "small amount of randomness to provide the illusion of a thinking machine", they would be much more useful in exchange for being less exciting to laypeople. In other words, scam.

        you know you can set the temperature to zero and get exactly that, right?

  > These companies are selling subscriptions for what is basically AGI That is the point under contention.

  > These companies are selling subscriptions for what is basically AGI This type of rhetoric is exactly why people think it's a scam

  It’s nowhere near AGI, and LLMs are not going to lead to it either. They do seem to be good at fooling people though.

    > nowhere near AGI, and LLMs are not going to lead to it either. Nevermind what they can do was pure science fiction just 3 years ago?

      Are you claiming they have AGI or are "close" to it?
      • SpicyLemonZest 4mo ago
        Yes. I think cutting-edge LLM products obviously have what nearly anyone in 2020 would have called "artificial general intelligence". The shape of the intelligence frontier has turned out to be much more jagged than anyone at the time expected, so I can imagine reasonable objections from someone who has a specific, concrete benchmark of AGI that wasn't invented 6 months ago and isn't yet met. If someone just has a subjective sense that they're not smart enough, I think they're wrong.

          • ekianjo 4mo ago
            There is disagreement mostly because of deeply insecure people.
            • amake 4mo ago
              "You only disagree with me because you are insecure" This is not a convincing argument.

  ... where can I get a subscription to this AGI?
