i wonder how many of the commenters who bemoan how GPT-4 can't do this or that task, could have predicted 2 or 5 years ago what GPT-4 can do easily today

Yes I also only find people to be credible if they have a solid track record of magically predicting events 2 to 5 years in the future.
That's the only way I'd find people credible when they're claiming they can predict 2 to 5 years in the future from now.

If they couldn't see ChatGPT coming, I'm not convinced of the whole "it'll never be able to..." spiel.

you should give it a try to be honest. metaculus.com
Yeah that is a much more succinct way to put it!
