If I were to ask my daughter to imagine a wholly new recipe using eggs, flour, sugar & water, she’d be completely stumped.There’s something fundamentally human and intelligent your daughter can absolutely do that no computer can: use her imagination.
Funny thing about eliminating junior employees: Eventually, all of the "senior" employees age out of existence. If you have no "junior" employees learning the ropes from the senior employees, you eventually go bankrupt.... ChatGPT has completely changed my work flow and eliminated my need for junior employees ...
I’m a small business. About 45% of employees in the US are employed by small businesses.Funny thing about eliminating junior employees: Eventually, all of the "senior" employees age out of existence.

But perhaps you're viewing this from the perspective of a small business, and aren't actually thinking long term and sustainable. In which case, good for you. But I would argue that in that event, your use case is not a particularly good generalization for the larger workforce.
Not true. However, it's true that they're not as intelligent as us and they clearly lack some architectural things they'll need. But the simple statements from people in this thread that LLMs have no intelligence is wrong.
I don’t mean this offensively, but do you spend a lot of time on the floor playing pretend with your child? Seeing the wonder and creativity?If I were to ask my daughter to imagine a wholly new recipe using eggs, flour, sugar & water, she’d be completely stumped.
I recently asked ChatGPT to do this, and it gave me 3 novel recipes, with full ingredient list, instructions, and photos of the expected end results.
Of course I doI don’t mean this offensively, but do you spend a lot of time on the floor playing pretend with your child? Seeing the wonder and creativity?
Humans don’t fit neatly into benchmarks, my point is that creative play plants the seeds that germinate into actual human intelligence, reasoning, and novel invention.
My other posts in this thread better elucidate my thoughts regarding the technology, but the reductive nature of technological analysis being applied to humanity, and especially vice-versa (that we are neural networks purely following desire paths) is, I believe, not just wrong but deeply depressing.

So AI is nothing more than clever programing?
That’s a bingo. LLMs are incredibly unreliable for anything that requires accuracy and consistency.
Your second point is a philosophical one that I think is more important than people realize. AI is incapable of any true creativity. Its responses are just a pastiche of information originally created by human beings, effectively plagiarizing human work. Who wants to live in a world where a person does all the legwork and creativity only for a computer to steal from that human?
I think this is actually very human…It suggests that LLMs don't scale reasoning like humans do, overthinking easy problems and thinking less for harder ones.
No, it’s capitalism.If they can cut costs and make number go up, that's the end of their concerns.
It's really depressing.
No, it’s capitalism.
There's a huge difference between attacking companies and taking issue with the underlying technology/reasoning/methods/etc currently used. Apple is doing the latter believing they have a better approach - hardly an "attack." That's what research is about and how progress is made going forward in a variety of technical and scientific fields.
I would speculate: not well at all, since it isn't a LLM. In fact, by most current metrics, Siri only barely qualifies as "AI."How did Siri fare in these tests?
Semantics. A defensive move; diverting blame, highlighting deficiencies in the other guys product. The media is 'attacking' them constantly.
They are in trouble. It shows quite a bit.
I doubt that LLMs can improve much. We're fast approaching the point where the only new data to train them on will be generated by LLMs. This will inevitably lead to continually accelerating corruption of the training datasets and the results provided by LLMs trained on them. It's not AI, nor has it ever been.The reality is that what we are seeing is the worst that is gonna get, it's an uphill trajectory with notable improvements.
And of course it has flaws, but choosing to discredit and being overly sceptical in this context is somewhat strange, specially if your company is being criticized for losing the AI train.
