Another week and another article on the latest AI developments, quoting me again. This time it's the release of GPT4 (which seems to be GPT3.5 with a few extra clever bits added on). These large language models are trained on a huge amount of data from the Internet. It gives them the apparent ability to be "clever AIs" answering almost any question we ask, writing computer code, describing the contents of images. But it's important to remember that these models are not understanding this content in the way that we do. While the data may be huge, the models do not experience our world, only our data. They also do not have the correct neural architecture to enable them to truly understand and adapt to their environments in the way that we do. Right now they're trained once then, that's it - they cannot keep up with changes. Nevertheless they're the best AI we've ever made, and their abilities are remarkable. Here's more of what I said in the article.
