Another basic demonstration on why oversight by a human brain is necessary.
A system rooted in pattern recognition that cannot recognize the basic two column format of published and printed research papers

To be fair the human brain is a pattern recognition system. it’s just the AI developed thus far is shit

Management would like to push up this timeline. Can you deliver by end of week?

As unpopular as opinion this is, I really think AI could reach human level intelligence in our life time. The human brain is nothing but a computer, so it has to be reproducible. Even if we don’t exactly figure out how are brains work we might be able to create something better.

The human brain is not a computer. It was a fun simile to make in the 80s when computers rose in popularity. It stuck in popular culture, but time and time again neuroscientists and psychologists have found that it is a poor metaphor. The more we know about the brain the less it looks like a computer. Pattern recognition is barely a tiny fraction of what the human brain does, not even the most important function, and computers suck at it. No computer is anywhere close to do what a human brain can do in many different ways.

The only way AI is going reach human-level intelligence is if we can actually figure out what happens to information in our brains. No one can really tell if and when that is going to happen.

I somewhat agree. Given enough time we can make a machine that does anything a human can do, but some things will take longer than others.
It really depends on what you call human intelligence. Lots of animals have various behaviors that might be called intelligent, like insane target tracking, adaptive pattern recognition, kinematic pathing, and value judgments. These are all things that AI aren’t close to doing yet, but that could change quickly.
There are perhaps other things that we take for granted than might end up being quite difficult and necessary, like having two working brains at once, coherent recursive thoughts, massively parallel processing, or something else we don’t even know about yet.
I’d give it a 50-50 chance for singularity this century, if development isn’t stopped for some reason.

What does “better” mean in that context?

We would have to direct it in specific directions that we don’t understand. Think what a freak accident we REALLY are!

I strongly encourage you to at least scratch the surface on human memory data.

The human brain has a pattern recognition system. It is not just a pattern recognition system.

The LLM systems are pattern recognition without any logic or awareness is the issue. It’s pure pattern recognition, so it can easily find some patterns that aren’t desired.
