Gytis Repečka<p>Artificial Intelligence (AI) hype is mainly associated with Large Language Models (LLM), which became available due to neural networks trained on very large datasets. Yet can those applied chatbots be considered <strong>intelligent</strong>?</p><p>I've recently heard OpenAI claiming their recent chatbot o3 progressed so much in Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), that they succeed in solving PhD-level problems. Ambitious, yet ridiculous claim.</p><blockquote><p>Although the term AGI is often used to describe a computing system that meets or surpasses human cognitive abilities across a broad range of tasks, no technical definition for it exists. As a result, there is no consensus on when AI tools might achieve AGI. Some say the moment has arrived; others say it is still far away.</p></blockquote><p>Source: <em>How should we test AI for human-level intelligence? Nicola Jones (2025). Nature | Vol 637 | 775</em>.</p><p>And since all of these tests, such as ARC-AGI, are based on questions-answers, it is interesting to note even OpenAI's o3 still fails to solve plenty of questions that humans consider straightforward.</p><p>So no human-level intelligence any time soon, folks :blobcatjustright:</p><p><a href="https://social.gyt.is/tags/ai" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ai</span></a> <a href="https://social.gyt.is/tags/aislop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>aislop</span></a> <a href="https://social.gyt.is/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://social.gyt.is/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://social.gyt.is/tags/agi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>agi</span></a></p>

Olivia Guest, co-author and assistant professor in Computational Cognitive Science at Radboud University: ‘For the sake of the thought experiment, we assume that engineers would have access to everything they might conceivably need, from perfect datasets to the most efficient machine learning methods possible. But even if we give the AGI-engineer every advantage, every benefit of the doubt, there is no conceivable method of achieving what big tech companies promise.’ </p><p>That’s because cognition, or the ability to observe, learn and gain new insight, is incredibly hard to replicate through AI on the scale that it occurs in the human brain. ‘If you have a conversation with someone, you might recall something you said fifteen minutes before. Or a year before. Or that someone else explained to you half your life ago. Any such knowledge might be crucial to advancing the conversation you’re having. People do that seamlessly’, explains van Rooij. </p><p>‘There will never be enough computing power to create AGI using machine learning that can do the same, because we’d run out of natural resources long before we'd even get close,’ Olivia Guest adds."</p><p><a href="https://www.ru.nl/en/research/research-news/dont-believe-the-hype-agi-is-far-from-inevitable" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">ru.nl/en/research/research-new</span><span class="invisible">s/dont-believe-the-hype-agi-is-far-from-inevitable</span></a></p>
