Hey everyone, So obviously the tech executives and engineers building AI at Google, openAI, anthropic, etc know much more about current model capabilities and what’s going on behind the scenes than anyone else but I’m curious if there are any members here that have some insight on what they are seeing or have in the vault that makes them claim we are so close to AGI. I’m heavily involved in LLM deployment and building agents in a professional setting and I have yet to see any evidence that the current architecture of LLMs will be capable of doing any real intelligent work. I think it’s a phenomenal tool to augment human intelligence allowing us to see more in data than ever before and automate repetitive/ mechanical workflows. I think we still have yet to realize just how much value LLMs can actually bring. However, when it comes to real intelligent work like scientific discoveries, business/ product strategy, creative marketing design, etc, I just can’t see LLMs being able to do this EVER. In fact they seem to be pretty stupid when it comes to trying to figure out new patterns and not just existing patterns. I do think eventually we will see real AGI but not with LLMs. The same way the first chatbot was built in 1966 and it took over 50 years to discover LLMs and make a useful chatbot, i think we will need another few decades to discover the next evolution to truly reach AGI. With that being said, all these executives are preaching that in the next 5 years AGI will be here and all jobs will be gone with AI even making all the future scientific breakthroughs. Now, it would be naive for me to not at least wonder what they must know considering that they literally see everything that the public isn’t even allowed to see. So I’m curious if anyone here knows anything or suspects anything that the general public doesn’t know and might be happening internally. Or is all this just marketing for the AI companies. submitted by /u/Latter_Fee3362
