This is the most important graph in the world. If you understand it, you know what's coming.

>There is, however, a certain tone of voice the bien pensant all speak in, whose sound is the same whether right or wrong; a tone shared with many statements in January to March of this year; a tone we can also find in a 1940 Scientific American article authoritatively titled, âDonât WorryâIt Canât Happenâ, which advised the reader to not be concerned about it any longer âand get sleepâ. (âItâ was the atomic bomb, about which certain scientists had stopped talking, raising public concerns; not only could it happen, the British bomb project had already begun, and 5 years later it did happen.)

The X and Y axes on both of those graphs are backwards.

If you just give this more computing power it gets better. It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous because it fucking works. It should not work as well as it does, but it does.
This means that AGI is no longer a theoretical problem, but an engineering problem.

it doesn't actually work b/c retards don't understand a basic principle of information theory: the data processing inequality

The models keep getting better. They just continue improving. Scaling *works,* denying that at this point is just pure cope. The question isn't "does scaling work" anymore, it's "is scaling to AGI practically feasible." The answer to that seems to be yes, as long as the Taiwan tariffs are rolled back.

Yes, diminishing returns as we fail to create a form of reasoning distinct from our own.
