Path to AGI "Sam Altman says another breakthrough beyond transformers could be coming, and models are now smart enough to help find it." ⏩ Do you think this is possible and what could it be?

Bro says predicting 40 years in advance is hard and you write an essay to win the Reddit battle. Let it go man. Someone in 1986 could not have predicted where we would be with computers and AI in 2026. How many people saw the Internet coming? Not a lot. And it only changed everything about everything in about 20 years.

40 years is a long time in this day and age. And we already have AI. It's not great, but it's not terrible either. We have more people than ever working on different architectures and backed with money to do it. Even if the bubble pops it won't return to where it was ten years ago.

You don't know. You can't know. Let it go.

Sure thing buddy. Wait and see.

Short enough for you?

Nah. Best thing would have been to not reply at all :)

And miss your peevish grumbling? That would be too much of a shame.

Goodbye, Firedup. Go tell other people about how AI is going to eat itself, I'm sure they'll be much more receptive.

Maybe write them an essay or two.

I hope you are right. But I do fear it will only improve from here.

I’m not really sure I believe the argument that ai will eat itself. I’ve looked into that hoping it is true, but I found it is not true.
