In a terrific interview with IEEE Spectrum, Brooks argues that these tools are a lot stupider than we realize, not to mention a very far cry from being able to compete with humans at any given task on an intellectual level. Overall, he says, we&#8217;re guilty of a lot of sins of poorly predicting the future of AI. Long story short, is AI poised to become the sort of artificial general intelligence (AGI) that could operate at a similar intellectual level to humans? &#8220;No, because it doesn\u2019t have any underlying model of the world,&#8221; Brooks told the publication. &#8220;It doesn\u2019t have any connection to the world. It is correlation between language.&#8221; Reality Check Brooks&#8217; comments serve as a valuable reminder of the current limitations plaguing AI tech, and how easy it is to imbue their output with meaning even though they were engineered to simply sound \u2014 rather than reason \u2014 like humans. &#8220;We see a person do something, and we know what else they can do, and we can make a judgment quickly,&#8221; he told IEEE Spectrum. &#8220;But our models for generalizing from a performance to a competence don\u2019t apply to AI systems.&#8221; In other words, current language models aren&#8217;t able to logically infer meaning, despite them making it sound like they can \u2014 which can easily mislead the&#8230;<a href=\"https:\/\/futurism.com\/the-byte\/ai-expert-chatgpt-way-stupider\">AI Expert Says ChatGPT Is Way Stupider Than People Realize<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI&#8217;m With Stupid Robotics researcher and AI expert Rodney Brooks is arguing that we&#8217;ve been vastly overestimating OpenAI&#8217;s large language models, on which its blockbuster chatbot ChatGPT is based on.&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[300,120,879,113,2712,236,2713,160,12,1284,295],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.godefy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3668"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.godefy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.godefy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.godefy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.godefy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3668"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.godefy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3668\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.godefy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3668"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.godefy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3668"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.godefy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3668"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
