  You literally were LMAO

  Other than that, we will keep incrementally improving our technology and it’s only a matter of time untill we get there. May take 5 years, 50 or 500 but it seems pretty inevitable to me.

  Literally a direct quote. In what world is this not talking about LLMs?

    There’s not a single mention of LLM’s in my entire post. The argument I’m making there isn’t even mine. I’ve heard it from Sam Harris way before LLMs were even a thing.

      Yeah, suuuuure you weren’t.

      Note that the proof also generalizes to any form of creating an AI by training it on a dataset, not just LLMs. But sure, we’ll absolutely develop an entirely new approach to cognitive science in a few years, we’re definitely not boiling the planet and funneling enough money to end world poverty several times over into a scientific dead end!
