How does this compare to non-stochastic, non-ML AI in games currently?

I’m saying imagine something like Data from Star Trek, something that defies human explanation. Does he have quaila? The humans who work with him everyday seem to think so. LLMs currently are humonculi, if even that. They’re not even that.

It’s not HN that’s the problem... Also please, tell me where is the right place for “serious” philosophical discussion. Would be glad to meet you in that forum and discuss. We don’t align on the definition of AGI. To me, AGI implies conscio

An LLM certainly won’t be AGI, whoever said something so ridiculous? I’m saying eventually, when/if we have an architecture that gives rise to artificial intelligence.

Anyone who believes AGI is imminent is operating on pure materialism (those two Venn diagrams pretty much make a circle), assuming that humans are nothing more than a collection of neural electrical connections and chemical reactions. If th

You don’t like Star Trek TNG? Maybe I should’ve picked LoTR or Atlas Shrugged? The tech oligarchy is more than fine co-opting fiction (fantasy and sci-fi especially). I don’t see why it’s weird at all… Aside from that, your critique is just

I didn’t say it wasn’t speculation, but low quality? That’s your own value judgement. Here’s anecdotal evidence on top of the speculation: I knew two guys with sub 2.5 GPAs in college, both work at SpaceX. Not the brightest tools in the she

Karp is right in this instance, sure, but he is just upset Palantir doesn’t have that kind of surveillance tech, and the in-house skills required to keep their edge in the age of LLM-assisted software engineering. Their true “moat" has

Idk, did you see the whole DOGE thing? Maybe Edolf has resorted to hiring script kiddies because nobody with a developed moral compass will work for his companies anymore.

Guy infiltrates the U.S. government and steals personal information about everyone from federal databases in broad daylight (not to mention cutting aid to poor children with preventable diseases). Average tech bro: “Sure, I’ll use his AI!”

That's a straw man. My argument isn't about 'the way it was created'; it's about the point I clarified in my previous comment. If you want to discuss that, great, but calling my take irrational based on an argument

Absolutely not obvious to me, especially since I have heard a lot of solo dev stories that insist it was purely a 1-person project. And it’s true in some cases.

My comment was directly relevant to yours. So I’ll say what I want, without needing your permission, thank you. Kudos to the mods for not flagging my original comment. They do that sometimes if you say the thing ;)

Disagree, it’s already a leap of faith to trust even human code (which is why we try to prove code, or at the very minimum create guardrails with tests). Human reasoning itself is under doubt. It’s even more of a leap of faith (>>) to
