| You know, people often complain about goal shifting in AI.
| We hit some target that was supposed to be AI (or even
| AGI), kind of go meh - and then change to a new goal. But
| the problem isn't goal shifting, the problem is that the
| goals were set to a level that had nothing whatsoever to do
| where we "really" want to go, precisely in order to make
| them achievable. So it's no surprise that when we hit these
| neutered goals we aren't then where we hope to actually be!
|
| So here, with your example. Basic software programs can
| multiply million digit numbers near instantly with
| absolutely no problem. This would take a human years of
| dedicated effort to solve. Solving work, of any sort,
| that's difficult for a human has absolutely nothing to do
| with AGI. If we think about what we "really" mean by AGI, I
| think it's the exact opposite even. AGI will instead
| involve computers doing what's relatively easy for humans.
|
| Go back not that long ago in our past and we were glorified
| monkeys. Now we're glorified monkeys with nukes and who've
| landed on the Moon! The point of this is that if you go
| back in time we basically knew nothing. State of the art
| technology was 'whack it with stick!', communication was
| limited to various grunts, and our collective knowledge was
| very limited, and many assumptions of fact were simply
| completely wrong.
|
| Now imagine training an LLM on the state of human knowledge
| from this time, perhaps alongside a primitive sensory feed
| of the world. AGI would be able to take this and not only
| get to where we are today, but then go well beyond it. And
| this should all be able to happen at an exceptionally rapid
| rate, given historic human knowledge transfer and storage
| rates over time has always been some number really close to
| zero. AGI not only would not suffer such problems but would
| have perfect memory, orders of magnitude greater
| 'conscious' raw computational ability (as even a basic
| phone today has), and so on.
|
| ---
|
| Is this goal achievable? No, not anytime in the foreseeable
| future, if ever. But people don't want this. They want to
| believe AGI is not only possible, but might even happen in
| their lifetime. But I think if we objectively think about
| what we "really" want to see, it's clear that it isn't
| coming anytime soon. Instead we're doomed to just goal
| shift our way endlessly towards creating what may one day
| be a _really_ good natural language search engine. And hey,
| that 's a heck of an accomplishment that will have
| _immense_ utility, but it 's nowhere near the goal that we
| "really" want.

| For example, if an AI can replace the average white

|
| Another shade of AGI would be an AI that can effectively
| do research level mathematics and theoretical physics and
| is therefore capable of very high-level logical
| reasoning.
|
| We don't know if shades A and B will happen at the same

|
| AGI doesn't imply simulation of a human mind or
| possessing all of human capabilities. It simply refers to
| an entity that possesses General Intelligence on par with
| a human. If it can prove the Riemann hypothesis but it
| can't play the cello, it's still an AGI.
|
| One notable shade of AGI is the singularity: an AI that
| can create new AIs better than humans can create new AIs.
| When we reach shades A and B then a singularity AGI is
| probably quite close, if not before. Note that a
| singularity AGI doesn't require simulation of the human

| You can develop software that can crush even the

|
| And I think this is the trap we need to avoid falling
| into. Complexity and intelligence are not inherently
| linked in any way. Primitive humans did not solve complex
| problems, yet obviously were highly intelligent. And so,
| to me, the great milestones are not some complex problem
| or another, but instead achieving success in things that
| have no clear path towards them. For instance, many (if
| not most) primitive tribes today don't even have the
| concept of numbers. Instead they rely on, if anything,
| broad concepts like a few, a lot, and more than a lot.
|
| Think about what an unprecedented and giant leap is to go
| from that to actually quantifying things and imagining
| relationships and operations. If somebody did try to do
| this, he would initially just look like a fool. Yes here
| is one rock, and here is another. Yes you have "two" now.
| So what? That's a leap that has no clear guidance or path
| towards it. All of the problems that mathematics solve
| don't even exist until you discover it! So you're left
| with something that is not just a recombination or stair
| step from where you currently are, but something entirely
| outside what you know. That we are not only capable of
| such achievements, but repeatedly achieve such is, to me,
| perhaps the purest benchmark for general intelligence.
|
| So if we were actually interested in pursuing AGI, it
| would seem that such achievements would also be
| dramatically easier (and cheaper) to test for. Because
| you need not train on petabytes of data, because the
| quantifiable knowledge of these peoples is nowhere even
| remotely close to that. And the goal is to create systems
| that get from that extremely limited domain of input, to
| what comes next, without expressly being directed to do
| so.

|
| Being human or super-human level at a small number of

| troubleshooting tips. His deletion of posts removed a

|
| 2. *Troubleshooting and Technical Advice*: He had a knack for

| frequently helped users fix problems on their own.
|
| 3. *Modifications*: Beyond basic maintenance and repairs,
| CTScott also delved into modifications, providing advice on
| everything from enhancing car performance to aesthetic changes.
|
| 4. *Community Engagement*: He was not just a contributor but
| also a pillar of the community who engaged in discussions,
| supported other members, and helped foster a welcoming

|
| ### Impact of Deletion: When CTScott deleted his posts, it left

| answer: This scenario is a classic probability puzzle
| known as the Monty Hall problem, named after the original host of
| the game show *Let's Make a Deal*. Here's how it works and what
| you should do: 1. **Initial Choice**: You choose one
| of the three doors. At this stage, the probability that you have
| selected the door with the great prize is \( \frac{1}{3} \), and
| the probability that the great prize is behind one of the other
| two doors is \( \frac{2}{3} \). 2. **Host's Action**:
| The host, who knows what is behind each door, then opens one of
| the remaining two doors to reveal a bad prize. This step is
| crucial because the host always reveals a bad prize and always
| chooses one of the doors you did not pick. 3.
| **Decision Point**: You now have the option to stick with your
| original choice or switch to the other unopened door. Here's why
| you might consider switching: - If your original
| choice (let's say you chose door 1) was correct (which has a
| probability of \( \frac{1}{3} \)), then the other two doors (2
| and 3) both have bad prizes, and switching would cause you to
| lose. - However, if your original choice was
| incorrect (which has a probability of \( \frac{2}{3} \)), meaning
| the prize is behind one of the other two doors, the host's action
| of opening another door (say he opens door 3, revealing a bad
| prize) leaves the door with the prize (door 2) still closed.
| Switching in this case would lead you to win. 4.
| **Probability of Winning**: - If you do not switch, you win
| if your original choice was the door with the prize (probability
| \( \frac{1}{3} \)). - If you do switch, you win if your
| original choice was not the door with the prize (probability \(
| \frac{2}{3} \)). Therefore, **you should switch
| doors**. Switching doors doubles your chances of winning the
| great prize, from \( \frac{1}{3} \) (if you stick with your
| original choice) to \( \frac{2}{3} \) (if you switch). The switch
| works in your favor because it capitalizes on the probability
| shift caused by the host's action of revealing a bad prize behind
| one of the doors you did not initially pick.

| To be honest, it's not super clear what you are asking (as a

|
| In the scenario you describe, you already know which door has
| the great prize and you have chosen that door initially. The
| game show host then eliminates one of the other two doors,
| which must be a door with a bad prize. At this point, you are
| asked whether you want to switch to the remaining unchosen

|
| Since you initially chose the door with the great prize and the
| host's action of removing a bad prize door doesn't change the
| contents of the doors, there is no benefit to switching. Your
| initial choice was the door with the great prize, and it still
| contains the great prize. Switching doors would only lead you
| to a door with a bad prize.
|
| Therefore, you should not switch doors. You should stick with

|
| This situation is different from the classic Monty Hall

|
| In the heart of the bustling city of Thessaloniki, where the
| aroma of freshly brewed Greek coffee mingled with the salty
| breeze of the Thermaic Gulf, an old watchmaker named Elias
| operated a tiny shop that had seen better days. The shop,
| cluttered with clocks of every kind, from grandiothers to
| delicate wristwatches, was a capsule of time itself, untouched by
| the rush of the modern world.
|
| Elias, a man of few words, wore the years on his face as
| gracefully as the patina on his timepieces. His hands, though
| steady when working on the intricate gears and springs, trembled
| slightly as he sipped his coffee in the quiet moments between the
| ticking.
|
| One rainy morning, as the city awoke to the tapping of rain
| against the cobblestones, a young woman named Zoe hurried into
| Elias's shop, escaping a sudden downpour. Her appearance was like
| a breeze through stale air, her bright eyes scanning the ancient
| clocks with a curious sparkle.
|
| "I need a gift," Zoe announced, her voice cutting through the
| silence like the chime of a bell. "Something unique."
|
| Elias nodded, his gaze lingering slightly longer than usual. He
| sensed her distress, a hidden layer beneath her composed
| exterior. "Who is it for?" he asked, his voice as rough as the
| gears he polished.
|
| "My father," she replied, her fingers tracing the outline of a
| pocket watch displayed under the glass. "He's retiring, and I
| want to give him something special to mark the end of his time
| working."
|
| "A good choice," Elias said, picking up the pocket watch. "This
| watch is over a hundred years old. It stopped working a long time
| ago, much like its owner, perhaps waiting for the right moment to
| come alive again."
|
| Zoe smiled, intrigued. "Can you fix it?"
|
| With a nod, Elias set to work. As his tools moved with precision,
| Zoe watched, seeing the care he took with each tiny screw and
| wheel. It was not just a watch he was mending, but weaving hope
| into an artifact left behind by time.
|
| "Tell me about him, your father," Elias said, as he worked.
|
| "He's always been punctual, a man of routine and schedules.
| Lately, I see him lost, unsure of what lies ahead when there's no
| office to go to, no meetings to attend."
|
| "A new chapter," Elias muttered, more to himself than to Zoe.
| "Time teaches us to move forward, even when our gears resist."
|
| When the watch was finally ticking again, its hands sweeping
| smoothly as if no time had passed since it last worked, Zoe's
| eyes lit up. She listened to it, the sound a sweet melody to her
| anxious heart.
|
| "How much do I owe you?" she asked, reaching for her purse.
|
| "Nothing," Elias said, closing her fingers around the watch.
| "Consider it a gift, for both you and your father. A reminder
| that time, even when it seems to stop, moves on, and so must we."
|
| Zoe left the shop with the watch securely in her hand, the weight
| of the gift heavier than its size suggested. When she gave her
| father the watch, his eyes reflected the same storms and sunsets
| that Elias's did. The retirement party passed, speeches were
| made, and laughter filled the air, but the true gift was in the
| quiet moment Zoe and her father shared, listening to the steady
| tick of the old pocket watch, a heartbeat promising new
| beginnings.
|
| Back in his shop, Elias sat alone, the tick-tock of countless
| clocks filling the room like a symphony. He didn't need to see
| Zoe's father's face to know the impact of his gift. In fixing the
| watch, he had set something much greater into motion, a timeless
| reminder that life, like time, always finds a way to move
| forward. The little shop wasn't just a place of business, but a
| haven where moments were kept alive through the magic of gears
| and springs, and where every repair mended more than just
| objects, but hearts too.

|
| Because Transformers are 'AI-complete'. Much is made of
| (decoder-only) transformers being next token predictors
| which misses the truth that large transformers _can_
| "think" before they speak: there are many layers in-between
| input and output. They can form a primitive high-level plan
| by a certain layer of a certain token such as the last
| input token of the prompt, e.g. go from A to B via
| approximate midpoint C, and then refer back to that on
| every following token, while expanding upon it with details
| (A to C via D): their working memory grows with the number
| of input+output tokens, and with each additional layer they
| can elaborate details of an earlier representation such as
| a 'plan'.
|
| However the number of sequential steps of any internal
| computation (not 'saved' as an output token) is limited by
| the number of layers. This limit can be worked around by
| using chain-of-thought, which is why I call them AI-
| complete.
|
| I write this all hypothetically, not based on mechanistic
| interpretability experiments.

|
| The phrase you're asking about, "Has anyone really been far even
| as decided to use even go want to do look more like?" is a famous
| example of internet gibberish that became a meme. It originated
| from a post on the 4chan board /v/ (video games) around 2009. The
| post puzzled readers due to its nonsensical structure, sparking
| amusement and confusion across the internet community.
|
| *Interpretation and Usage:*
|
| 1. *As a Meme:* This phrase is typically used online to mock
| confusing, poorly worded, or illogical statements. It's often
| brought up in forums or comment sections as a humorous way to
| question the coherence of someone else's words or to deliberately
| confuse someone further.
|
| 2. *Cultural Impact:* It reflects a broader internet culture that
| values absurdity and nonsensical humor. Memes like this are a way
| for internet communities to bond over shared "inside jokes" or a
| common understanding of internet history and culture.
|
| 3. *In Communication:* You might see it used in response to
| something that doesn't make sense, or when someone wants to
| playfully indicate that what they're saying or asking isn't meant
| to be taken seriously. It's a playful embrace of chaos and
| confusion that's typical in many online communities.
|
| *Use in Conversation:* If you're in a context where internet
| memes and humor are appreciated, dropping this phrase could serve
| as a light-hearted way to engage or nudge others into a fun, if a
| bit bewildering, exchange. Just be aware that its usage is best
| received among those familiar with meme culture and internet
| history.
