As we can see with the recently posted article in the Atlantic about pausing AI even at the risk of delaying cancer treatment, I think there is a fundamental misunderstanding between frontier models and AI in general in the general public. You could argue for example, that the progress of releasing frontier models to the public should be slowed down due to a large number of issues. However, at the same time you could argue that AI labs should continue to press forward on specific AI projects t...

Basically full-dive technology, some sort of BCI system you plug into your brain that transports you to a world that fools all of your senses, not just the eyes.

A few years ago, this topic was all the rage and large numbers of this sub believed the claims, from posters like Jimmy Apples, that OpenAI had already built an AGI-level model internally but were holding back its release. What happened? I think it's fairly obvious that they did not achieve AGI internally. So, why are people still listening to the same people who made this claim?
