Programs have "learned" how to play games without instruction — most recently with rat neurons playing Doom — and that's what they'll attempt to do with LLM's. It must learn from feedback, experience and interaction as we could never code something that complex.

I don't believe LLM's can achieve general AI, but humans are just organic pattern recognition devices at the end of the day — a brain in an organic machine that can sense a fraction of the world around us.

The problem is that LLM's are dumb, thus dangerous when given autonomy, they'll be used to wage war, and the military industrial complex is more likely to destroy us with autonomous LLM killbots than achieve general AI.
