and use cross-domain knowledge. And there's certain techniques I think we can do, but it's still missing the abilities of human beings that have had to become true and complete. And so I guess the question to give back at you is like, how do you tell the difference between trial and error and the generation of new knowledge.

And so I guess the question to give back at you is like, how do you tell the difference between trial and error and the generation of new knowledge.
I think the way you can do it is this, is that you come up with a theory, an explanation, inspiration comes from out, yeah, and then you then test that, and then you see that's going towards a truth. And human beings are very good at doing that, and the transition between philosophy, mathematics, physics, and natural sciences. And I think that we can see that.

Where I get confused is why people misappropriate the term artificial intelligence to say, hey, there's something else going on here. Because I think you and I both agree, machine learning is really good. It's only going to get better. We're going to get happier with the outcome. But why would you ever think the model was thinking or reasoning? Reasoning requires intention.

And the intention, if the model isn't reasoning, the intentions come from the prompter. And the intention has come from the person who programmed it to do it. So I... But don't you think...

And that causal chain in there. So that intention comes from the outside. I think that there is something in that causal chain of intention that's super important. I don't disagree we're going to get to AGI. It's a matter of when and what hardware. I think we're not going to do it in this hardware. And I think we're unnecessarily fetishizing really cool outputs and dopamine hits.
