These math breakthroughs happened by throwing tens of thousands of agents at a problem to cover all possible angles (with tools developed by other mathematicians) costing the same amount of money as hiring ten top tier mathematicians for several years. Not saying it is not impressive, but not “AI can replace sciencetists” level impressive.
Sam, just because the digital parrot outsmarts you, it does not need to be intelligent.
Just because AI is smarter than Sam Altman doesn’t mean it’s smarter than top scientists. Especially considering Sam is just about as smart as a pile of horseshit.
Is that sister fucking Sam Altman?
Funny how AI has supposedly surpassed the greatest scientists, yet the greatest scientific discovery here is always announced by the guy selling subscriptions. If it really is that smart, perhaps it could explain to Sam the difference between a peer reviewed breakthrough and a product launch.
Please Sam, put the AI in charge of your company. Pretty please
AI is a deep learning algorithm used for information retrieval with dubious accuracy.
It doesn’t think. It has no awareness or understanding. It’s not intelligent. It certainly can’t come up with something new or creative like an intelligent person can.
Something surprisingly few people get about AI is if it had any intelligence at all it would surpass us blindingly fast, no matter the starting point.
It’s never going to be in the news that thinking machines got 23% smarter over the last month or three.
There’s an old comic I wish I could locate that has people standing at a train platform awaiting superintelligence. Nothing happens, then someone staring down the track says I think I see- whoosh and it’s already gone.
Is it because he thinks he is the brightest human scientist, but it turns out he’s actually pretty stupid?
You can tell how competent someone is at something by how good they think an LLM is at that thing.
yes
He is anything else than stupid. Actually dangerous (unless they finally stop throwing insane amounts of money at him year after year)
I’ll believe it when I hear it from the brightest human scientists, not the glorified salesman who would ironically be perfectly replaced by AI.
It’s the best monkey at the typewriter.
Ya, Sam, call me when the AI knows what questions to ask that it came up with on its own rather than just scraping…
So they just gonna fire all their AI engineers and replace them with AI now, right?
Yours is the first valid argument, after reading previous 13, all of which were, unfortunately, more up-voted than yours.
Edit : Now, having read all 38 main comments, yours is the only one that has real valid logic.
I believe AI is smarter than Sam Altman.
Sam Altman believes he is smarter than scientists.
I asked AI if it’s smarter than scientists, and it said no. So if Sam says I should trust AI, Sam is full of shit.
The more pants-on-head crazy the claims are, the more desperate they are.

These types of people don’t know the difference between having an answer and understanding. It’s why when AI solves a long running math problem, it’s practically useless to us.
