The Turing Test is a pretty meaningless concept these days, but bring it on!

Saw this elsewhere, but while nice if true (and the Gwern thing is interesting) it seems like a hype article. It would be a huge deal if they really did manage to do that to training costs though.

AGI 2028

Most news around GPT-4 is. The "Cerebras partnership" was always just a mention of GPT-N by Cerebras to hype up their processor, OpenAI had no say in that. (also not sure if .e6 is 100k-1M or 1M-10M). The only leak that Im sure came from Sam was "the model won't be much bigger than GPT-3 and be text only", which Id say is the only one to trust (although it can be outdated).

Now it's all about BIG-bench

Bench Chungus

Passed the Turing test as administered by who?

I 4 1

there's no such thing as turning test, it's just a mith.

I didn't care about GPT and always thought it was overhyped and assumed the next version would be more of the same, but if this really has "especially significant results in the multimodal doman", then this has a good chance of being an actual game changer.

I mean, to be fair, I’m pretty sure I couldn’t pass the Turing test. I’m not sure about the rest of y’all, either.

Yes its probably hype just like most of the articles on here, from what ive heard its the same as gpt 3 but its scaled down and does the same thing which is good bc u need less paramaters to do the same thing

Lately other LLMs have impressed me more than GPT-3.

Models trained for specific use-cases.

Interesting, I love the environment that full of rumur. But instead of pass turing test, I hope it can have other more useful, important, fatal ability.

Turing test aside, what I think is interesting is the notion that as we baby step our way to AGI we may- as a society- hardly notice when we get there.

What I mean is that the general consensus- maybe less so in this sub- is that reaching AGI will be this world changing event that will effect everything…

But I think it’s probably closer to the truth that lots of individual things are already being greatly effected by narrow focused AI (like physics and biology) and as that advances it is gaining traction in everyday society with things like art and music.

I could see society getting to the point that AI is so ubiquitous reaching AGI would just seem (from the lens of society at large) like just another baby step forwards.

The trouble is that super intelligence will follow shortly after and society needs to notice.

I guess they would have brought in volunteers and conducted an experiment as to whether they knew they were speaking with AI or not.

Preferably by researchers in deep natural language processing.

blah blah blah

I can't imagine it will be the same as gpt3 because even small models now outperform gpt3 by a ton.

While it might be a smaller scale model it will still most likely be way more powerful. I do hope we get a full size model with all the new techniques though, but I wouldn't mind a pocket size one either.

As a society we can’t even notice climate change when it’s hitting us in the face. No chance with AGI.

yep, we're going to get blindsided and tbh it might be better that way for society, no time for people to let their imaginations run wild and work themselves up into a paranoid frenzy, it's just 'oh it's already here and it's working for us and everything's getting much more affordable now and I can retire with my free robot butler.'

There should be a world wide prohibition on making any AI look purposely like a person. I mean defeating our biological bullshit meter in the “uncanny valley” is probably a bad thing.

Let's say we notice. How could that change our fate?

By taking concious and intentional action.

Don't you think noticing things that are life-changing is important?

I do, I'm just not convinced we'd be able to do anything meaningful if it got to that point.

less time to devote resources to alignment and safety too, not a good idea at all

Are there any that are good at creative writing? Other than NovelAI

The Turing Test is a low low low bar. Some people thought Eliza was a real person. There was that Google employee who thought Google's chatbot was sentient and got it a lawyer. It would have to spit out math proofs on demand for me to even begin to think it was actually intelligent.

People will notice when they can generate unique movies and video games on demand.

i looks like / here, got me confused for a second.

Lol I italicized the “I” to emphasize it, and proved my point… lol

no doi

The Turing test is certainly not a meaningless concept to Ray Kurzweil.
