I’m not saying that we can’t ever build a machine that can think. You can do some remarkable things with math. I personally don’t think our brains have baked in gradient descent, and I don’t think neural networks are a lot like brains at all.

The stochastic parrot is a useful vehicle for criticism and I think there is some truth to it. But I also think LMMs display some super impressive emergent features. But I still think they are really far from AGI.
