> don't believe LLMs will get any better than this without a new major breakthrough, but this is already better than using Google search

I mean .. every single org is invested in that research right now

Money helps, but doesn’t guarantee breakthroughs.

The sort of transformation needed here seems achievable. There are various roadmaps to success whereas there were not any roadmaps to general language agents just a few years ago.

I don't see how it seems achievable.

Backprop was popularized in 1986. Transformers came out in 2017.

It could be >10-20 years before the next breakthrough comes. Given all the progress so far, these things still don't seem to be learning any logic.

True, if by "every single org" you mean "maybe a dozen orgs". All that the vast majority of companies is doing is figuring out how to run an existing LLM or API thereof and shipping an RAG integration button for their application.
