“Innovations like artificial intelligence (AI) and neural lace are already here, even if they are not yet in most of society’s field of vision. The world of integrated AI supplementing and replacing our intelligence is moments away.”
— Dr Alan D. Thompson (June 2021)
“I think GPT-3 is artificial general intelligence, AGI. I think GPT-3 is as intelligent as a human. And I think that it is probably more intelligent than a human in a restricted way… in many ways it is more purely intelligent than humans are. I think humans are approximating what GPT-3 is doing, not vice versa.”
— Connor Leahy, co-founder of EleutherAI, creator of GPT-J (November 2020)
