Im dont reading LLM papers.

Based on what we know of the MS deal (they can have all of open AI's work till AGI is achieved). And with the departure of any one who thought safety was a need something became very clear to me.

They thought that they were going to hit some magic threshold of data where it would snap over to some sort of sentience, or sapience or AGI magic or...

LLM's have a hallucination problem. Till it's addressed they are gonna be buggy. This is great for a video game but not so great for anything important.

I had a similar thought the other day about transistors, computers, and data centers. There is a qualitative difference between one transistor and a lot of them packed together into a CPU or GPU but there is no qualitative difference between a computer and a data center other than the speed at which parallel computation can happen. So I don't really understand what threshold AGI is supposed to happen at if it hasn't already happened at AWS and Google data centers.
