Are you referring to other threads? No. However, I wouldn't be surprised if other people developed similar beliefs following recent advances in large language models (LLMs). Of course, we wouldn't achieve GPT-4 level results using only technology available before 2020, but with sufficient data and computational power, we could have accomplished much more than what was generally believed to be possible in the machine learning field at the time.

I thought I had read almost those exact words before. I've been known to repeat myself on here before.

In fact I've been so nuanced that I've had people use something I've said to disagree with me and then I've had to point out that the original thing is also by me.

I've been unable to determine whether I'm actually influential or am just unknowingly expressing part of a generalized changing sentiment. Confidence is the first trapping of fools.
