True AI does not and will not exist

My 2€ calculator obliterates a 200.000€ ferrari doing multiplications.

That's on them for taking on the Atari 2600, where "the games don't get older, they get better!"

Man all these people coping, I thought chatgpt was supposed to be a generic one able to do anything?

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

It depends. Have you used it? If not - Yes! It does do . . . all the things.

If you have used it, I’m sorry that was incorrect. You simply need to pay for the upgraded subscription. Oh, and as a trusted insider now we can let you in on a secret - the next version of this thing is gonna be, like, wow! Boom shanka! Everyone else will be so far behind!

You know, when you put it like that, it kind of sounds like Scientology...

In other news: My toaster makes better toast than my vacuum.

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 8 points 5 days ago (1 children)

If ChatGPT were marketed as a toaster nobody would bat an eye. The reason so many are laughing is because ChatGPT is marketed as a general intelligence tool.

[–] Railcar8095@lemm.ee 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Do you have any OpenAI stuff (ad, interview, presentation...) That claims it's AGI? Because I've never seen such thing, only people hyping it for clicks and ad revenue

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I was very careful not to use the term AGI for this reason. General intelligence tool isn’t the same thing. It’s a much weaker claim, yet it’s also a far stronger claim than any purpose-built software. The ambiguity is part of their marketing strategy.

[–] Railcar8095@lemm.ee 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Question remains. Any marketing about it being general intelligence? Not general use, but general intelligence.

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

No, though there’s been plenty of marketing where they claim “we know how to build AGI.”

They have marketed ChatGPT as a general purpose AI from the very beginning, though the question of how to leverage that has remained open.

Your vacuum uses more power than a 150,000-person city just to clean an 8’ square rug?

That does suck.

Heh.

If llms are statistics based, wouldn't there be many many more losing games than perfectly winning ones? It's like Dr strange saying 'this is the only way'.

[–] Railcar8095@lemm.ee 9 points 5 days ago

It's not even that. It's not a chess AI or a AGI (which doesn't exist). It will speak and pretend to play, but has no memory of the exact position of the pieces nor the capability to plan several steps ahead. For ask intended and porpoises, it's like asking my toddler what's the time (she always says something that sounds like a time, but doesn't understand the concept of hours or what the time is)

The fact that somebody posted this on LinkedIn and not only wasn't shamed out of his job but there are several articles about it is truly infuriating.

Attempting to badly quote someone on another post: « How can people honestly think a glorified word autocomplete function could be able to understand what is a logarithm? »

This is so stupid and pointless...

"Thing not made to solve spesific task fails against thing made for it.."

This is like saying that a really old hand pushed lawn mower is better then a SUV at cutting grass...

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 41 points 1 week ago (25 children)

SUVs aren't marketed as grass mowers. LLMs are marketed as AI with all the answers.
