I think it’s moreso that the more developed any one project is, the fewer low hanging fruits there are to pick, so there’s less beginner tasks to do. That being said, there are still new projects springing up every day, but we just don’t kn

Part of the issue is that we don’t really understand consciousness in humans. I think that’s needed before we can actually see what’s happening with AI. This article reminds me of that Google engineer that called LaMDA sentient.
