Truth be told, it’s possible to get information out of people without any of this. Simply by torture, like in Abu Ghraib.

There was a time plantations existed for black people to work on them. Not arguing working at publicly traded companies is a “modern-day slavery”. But it’s not inconceivable to me that the nature or corporations(and society) can change over

I’m not saying that Berlin and Amsterdam only get stupid people. But it’s uncommon to meet a graduate from a top school there (which isn’t a 100% reliable metic, but anyway). What helps Europe(and I mean mostly Germany) are more relaxed imm

I have several bank accounts. One charges flat monthly fee(that’s very low), one has positive interest(way smaller than inflation), one is free. All in three different counties. But I don’t argue your experience is unique. It’s in general v

Yeah but LLMs could be a small component of future AGI. You can’t deny that models that fool so many people into thinking the models really reason are a step towards AGI.

I think this whole “a problem never seen before” is something we need to rethink. Do people really work like that? I mean, I can’t expect a liberal arts major to solve a differential equation.

Current-generation LLMs give many people an impression of reasoning. I think reasoning about things is a big part of AGI.

If you put it this way, solving a differential equation numerically also provides an answer similar to human. But you don’t call Matlab an AI.
