If anything this points to a more moderate (but still bad) worry among the employees.
We have been living in a parody for some time now, so it feels normal.
Is probably the best description of the state of engineering today
If someone’s not even willing to stake their job on it, I don’t see why I’d be concerned. (And until they do, we’re just speculating about what they may or may not even say.)
The ability for a model to improve itself over time without outside intervention. As yet, no models yet have this capability, and LLMs specifically what with how they are constructed, are not likely to ever have it. They are frozen in carbonite at the time of their training.
That's not to say they can't use skills to appear somewhat worldly, things like searching the internet and what have you, but if you ask a model to strictly stick to data in it's training, it will do that and it will be stuck in whatever time in which it was built.
Energy is conserved, gravity exists, and LLMs aren't intelligent.
We will never prove LLMs are intelligent, we'll only prove humans are not.
> can't use skills to appear somewhat worldly
Duh, humans don't generally make up things whole cloth either, they access other information, books, tools, sensors, etc.
But I guess if you ignore enough information you can reach any position. It's up to the audience to decide which one of us this applies to.
A model being able to train a bigger model with marginally better capabilities is not what the hype was about.
