Not a word from Ilya. I can’t wrap my mind around his motivation. Did he really fire Sam over “AI safety” concerns? How is that remotely rational.

Not rational iff (and unlike Sustkever, Hinton, Bengio) you are not a "doomer" / "decel". Ilya's very vocal and on record that he suspects there may be "something else" going on with these models. He and DeepMind claim AlphaGo is already AGI (correction: ASI) in a very narrow domain (https://www.arxiv-vanity.com/papers/2311.02462/). Ilya particularly predicts it is a given that Neural Networks would achieve broad AGI (superintelligence) before alignment is figured out, unless researchers start putting more resources in it.

(like LeCun, I am not a doomer; but I am also not Hinton to know any better)

The definition of AGI always puzzles me, because "G" in AGI is general, and the word certainly don't play well w/ "narrow". AGI is a new buzzword I guess.

Well there's nothing narrow about sota LLMs. The main hinge is just competence.

i think the guy you're replying to misunderstood the article he's alluding to though. They don't claim anything about a narrow agi
