Game over. AGI is not imminent, and LLMs are not the royal road to getting there.

First slowly, and then all at once, dreams of LLMs bringing us to the cusp of AGI have fallen apart.

    I don’t thinks anyone who knows how current LLMs work actually thought they would lead to AGI. They didn’t fall for the Chinese room that they built they just hoped that others would.

      Nitpick: if we had AGI at all, it would be intelligent. You’re referencing LLMs which certainly have no intelligence in how they work.

      It’s a good thing we don’t have AGI too, as we’re doing terribly in regulation and control of the pseudo AI that’s available. AGI may not ever become a thing, or it may take a while, or it may be soon. We won’t be ready for it regardless at this rate, and we may not even realize what happened.
