But I wouldn't say any of this stuff with certainty, like we're deep into the unknown here.
For me, a system that cannot go significantly add to the sum total of scientific knowledge we have access to, kind of discover, invent, whatever you want to call it, new fundamental science, is not a superintelligence.
And
To do that really well, I think we will need to expand on the GPT paradigm in pretty important ways that we're still missing ideas for.
Look, if an oracle told me far from the future that GPT-10 turned out to be a true AGI somehow, maybe just some very small new ideas, I would be like, okay, I can believe that.
Not what I would have expected sitting here and would have said a new big idea, but I can believe that.
The thing that I am so excited about with this is not that it's a system that kind of goes off and does its own thing, but that it's this tool that humans are using in this feedback loop.
Helpful for us for a bunch of reasons.
We get to, you know, learn more about trajectories through multiple iterations.
But I am excited about a world where AI is an extension of human will and a amplifier of our abilities and this like, you know, most useful tool yet created.
And that is certainly how people are using it.
And I mean, just like look at Twitter, like the results are amazing.
People's like self-reported happiness with getting to work with this are great.
So, yeah, maybe we never build AGI, but we just make humans super great.
Still a huge win.
Yeah, and maybe that you create, like, you know, in a day of programming, you have one really important idea.
Yeah.
And that's the contribution.
And that's the contribution.
And there may be, like, I think we're going to find...
