Honestly, I’ve not seen progress like this in my lifetime

You could have said that any year before now, and will be able to say it every year in the future. That is kind of the point of exponential growth.

2019-2021 .. was pretty lax if you ask me..

DALLE was released in 2021 and GPT-3 in 2020. If posts around here are anything to go by they were kind of a big deal.

That's a fair point .. I mentioned in my other reply.. releases are an OK indicator of progress through. Technically GPT3 was already well past development stage before 2020...

aaaand DALLE, I don't know how much of an advancement that is.. like it's it not surprising that a tiny startup releasing their first version of Stable Diffusion.. dominated the AI communities.. just because it's open source. There was definatley important releases..

But this year's has literally only seen 6 weeks right? ... Some pretty much moves being made already.. it's exciting.

2019 was GPT-2 which rocked the boat. 2020 was GPT-3 which sank the boat. Those were partially responsible for kicking off this whole scaling up of transformers

There was also LaMDA in 2021, and I'm sure many other big events in that period that I'm forgetting

That's actually a fair point.. although those models had been invented way before 2019.. release date isn't development or discovery date right. It's like GPT4 ..that's already existed for well over 2 years now right..it's just not "ready" yet.

Stable Diffusion 3 is literally microsecond level response time now.. it's insane.

Honestly.. I think the big breakthroughs.. aren't going to be in AI..it's going to be in UK/UX and how people are going to bootstrap these models for building something actually useful.

Apparently you haven't seen any of the the uncountable javascript libraries released durint that time, or the hundreds of startups tackling similar subjects or the tens of thousands of research papers on distributed systems, animation etc. (just because there are non-groundbreaking research papers in the list above too) .

The list above is nothing groundbreaking, just copies over copies of the same stuff we've had for quite a while + productivising it.

The real summary of the past months and days:

The good: AI is going public.

The bad: we still don't have any real clue on how to get to AGI.

The worse: AI is getting regulated and people are fighting back.

The technological progression on a graph vs time might as well be a verticle line straight up.

I'm excited about all the news, but do we have any usable AI products yet that has already been released? Not just announced?
