@l1ghtandmag1c @GaryMarcus The folks who've been pumping this idea for 2+ years either don't get that - or don't want to get that - and will only run for the hills when the bottom falls out.

I agree AGI is possible but it's not imminent - there is no implementable architecture for intelligence.

@JadeCole2112 @GaryMarcus Not sure if it's more puzzling or embarrassing. I do believe AGI is possible, but LLMs are not the way.

@GaryMarcus Seriously there are "experts" and industry heavyweights talking about emergent properties and "sparks of AGI" - the whole idea is ridiculous.

@GaryMarcus How can anyone look at these obvious errors and still think these LLMs are doing any kind of reasoning? It is wilful blindness.

Reply below with screenshots of your most hilarious goat/boat/wolf/river-crossing style problem LLM fails. Feel free to vary the classic problem however you like.

Winners will be included in an upcoming Marcus on AI newsletter, where I discuss what these fails…

The statement engages in a discussion about the feasibility and current state of artificial general intelligence (AGI), which is a significant topic in the field of artificial intelligence and technology. The tone is analytical and critical, aiming to clarify misconceptions about the current capabilities of AI systems.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement strives to do no harm by focusing on the technical aspects of AGI and not targeting individuals personally. It maintains a professional tone. [+1]
  2. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement promotes understanding by addressing the misconception about the availability of an implementable architecture for intelligence, contributing to a more informed discussion. [+1]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement engages in constructive criticism by challenging the idea that AGI is imminent and providing a reasoned argument against it. It does not engage in personal attacks but rather focuses on the technical argument. [+1]
