Extending the context length to 1M tokens

Can we all agree that these models far surpass human intelligence now? I mean they process hours worth of audio in less time than it would take a human to even listen. I think the singularity passed and we didn't even notice (which would be expected)

They process the audio but they stumble enough with recall that you cannot really trust it.

I had a problem where I used GPT-4o to help me with inventory management, something a 5th grade kid could handle, and it kept screwing up values for a list of ~50 components. I ended up spending more time trying to get it to properly parse the input audio (I read off the counts as I moved through inventory bins) then if I had just done it manually.

On the other hand, I have had good success with having it write simple programs and apps. So YMMV quite a lot more than with a regular person.

I will wave my arms wildly at the last eight years if the claim is that humans do not struggle with recall.

So are they human like and therefore not anything special or are they super human magic? I never get the equivocation when people complain how there is no way to objectively tell what out is right or wrong people either say they are getting better, or they work for me, or that people are just as bad. No they aren't! Not in the same way these things are bad.
