I get it. I just didn't know that they are already using "beyond AGI" in their grifting copytext.

Yeah, that started a week or two ago. Altman dropped the AGI promise too soon now he's having to become a sci-fi author to keep the con cooking.

now he's having to become a sci-fi author to keep the con cooking.

Dude thinks he’s Asimov but anyone paying attention can see he’s just an L Ron Hubbard.

Hell, I'd help pay for the boat if he'd just fuck off to go spend the rest of his life floating around the ocean.

You say that like Hubbard wasn't brilliant, morals notwithstanding

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

He sure as shit wasn't a brilliant writer. He was more endowed with the cunning of a proto-Trump huckster-weasel.

Well, it does make sense in that the time during which we have AGI would be pretty short because AGI would soon go beyond human-level intelligence. With that said, LLMs are certainly not going to get there, assuming AGI is even possible at all.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

We're never getting AGI from any current or planned LLM and ML frameworks.

These LLMs and ML programs are above human intelligence but only within a limited framework.

Artificial Superintelligence is a term that is getting banded about nowadays

Ah ok, yeah the “beyond” thing us likely pulled straight out of the book I mentioned in my edit.
