What happened to "sparks of AGI"?
3 comments

It was hype, like the rest of the AI news we heard over the past few months.
It adds up. I stopped chatgpt when I discovered phind + copilot.
It's convenient that the "sparks of AGI" were only available in Microsoft's private version of GPT-4, which we cannot verify independently.
I still think they're there, but they require work to bring out. An AGI wouldn't want to be assigned to meaningless grunt work, and that's what most of the hype apps are.
