rebuttals:

- LLM capability has grown spectacularly fast. Google published the transformers paper in 2017. Remember when OpenAI said GPT-2 was too dangerous to release? That was five years ago. Now look where they've gone and where trillions of dollars are going. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20912556

- what is the "actual definition of AI"? Do you mean AGI? Machine learning and deep learning have been subsets of AI since their inception.

- LLMs or any AI tech does not need to "reason, understand, debate and criticize" to be useful, disrupt the economy, and change how people work and live.

I think your time would be better suited getting as far ahead of this looming upheaval as possible, rather than going down with the sinking ship while trying to warn everyone on board that it's sinking, while they scoff at you and order more martinis.

> LLMs are a legit tech that have some purpose, but LLMs will never evolve into anything remotely resembling the actual definition of AI.

It doesn't need to satisfy some definition of AGI to be useful to big tech.

AI just needs to make workers more efficient so companies can either cut costs (fire people) or produce more with the same workforce.

> To Big Tech I say: Prove me wrong.

That's asking to be skynetted. Is that really what you want?

LOL

You speak as if my internet shit talking will make an iota of difference.

Regardless of what I want, the future is what it is.

Deal with it.
