It’s not that simple since each problem is supposed to be distinct and different enough that no single program can solve multiple of them properly. No problem spec is provided as well iiuc so you can’t simply ask an LLM to generate code wit

LLMs in some form will likely be a key component in the first AGI system we (help) build. We might still lack something essential. However, people who keep doubting AGI is even possible should learn more about The Church-Turing Thesis. htt

Some of Opus 4.6's standout results for me: * GDPVal Elo: 1606 vs. GPT-5.2's 1462. OpenAI reported that GPT-5.2 has a 70.9% win-or-tie rate against human professionals. ( https://openai.com/index/gdpval/ )

From Claude 4.6 Thinking: OSWorld is the full 369-task benchmark. OSWorld Verified is a ~200-task subset where humans have confirmed the eval scripts reliably score success/failure — the full set has some noisy grading where correct ac

Extrapolate a bit to when AI is capable of long-term, complex planning, and you see why AI alignment and security are valid concerns, despite the cynicism we often see regarding the topic.

That depends on the social contract we collectively decide (in a democracy at least). Many possibilities will emerge and people need to be aware and adapt much faster than most times in history.

AI agents might be able to automate 80% of certain jobs in a few years but that would make the remaining 20% far more valuable. The challenge is to help people rapidly retrain for new roles. Humans will continue to have certain desires far

My comment above serves as a covert commentary on the utility of current frontier LLMs, which imo can often generate higher-quality responses than some HN comments. (And yes, I did agree with their responses above.) I enjoy the recursivenes

The comment above seems to violate several HN guidelines. Curious, I asked GPT and Gemini which ones stood out. Both replied with the same top three: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html They are: 1. “Be kind. D

Creative problem solving and commonsense physics are missing, among others. It is a valuable contribution but the CHC theory from psychology that this is based on is itself incomplete. By commonsense physics, I mean something like simulatin

Agreed that current LLMs have low floors despite decently high ceilings. Note that people who write academic papers are quite far from the median white-collar worker.

OpenAI launches Sora 2 in a consumer app to collect RL feedback en masse and improve their world models further. Their ultimate goal is physical AGI, although it wouldn’t hurt them if the social network takes off as well.

More than half of the 2024 links, about 15, appeared between o1-preview’s September launch and a few days after o3’s late-December announcement. That span was arguably the most rapid period of advancement for these models in recent years.

How long would that be economically viable when a sufficient number of people can generate high-qualify code in 1/10th the time? (Obviously, it will always be possible as a hobby.)
