    As to genuine AI needing better GPUs, I’ll believe it when Jeff Hawkins says it’s so.

        I’ve read a couple of his books, and he’s been developing a theory of human intelligence with the express goal of creating true AGI. His Thousand Brains book espouses a theory I find just about credible and, perhaps eventually, actionable.

        It’s all to do with cortical columns working in parallel on a pseudo-voting type of system. If at some point he says “we know how to make AGI now, but we’re going to need really good GPUs”, I will find that credible based on having read his work.

          Yeah. I dont think what we have now is general intelligence. It’s just word prediction models. But they still manage to give an impression of intelligence. I think there will be some big change at some time where Ai models will use some different technology and probably give something closer to actual thinking.

            Oh, nobody thinks what we have now is AGI. Not even the AI thinks it’s AGI. It’s just a words firehose being hyped to hell and gone because billionaires are so excited to fire their employees that they’re jumping the gun.
