It can't solve this puzzle: https://i.imgur.com/AJqbqHJ.png

    Thought for 3m 51s
    Short answer → you can’t.
The breathtaking thing is not the model itself, but that someone as smart as Cowen (and he's not the only one) is uttering "AGI" in the same sentence as any of these models. Now, I'm not a hater, and for many tasks they are amazing, but they are, as of now, not even close to AGI, by any reasonable definition.

  I think it is AGI, seriously.  Try asking it lots of questions, and then ask yourself: just how much smarter was I expecting AGI to be?
That's his whole argument!!!! This is so frustrating coming from a public intellectual. "You don't need rigorous reasoning to answer these questions, baybeee, just go with your vibes." Complete and total disregard for scientific thinking, in favor of confirmation bias and ideology.
