The job of beneficial AGI is to make a plan, a plan for every human and their every goal. The job of safe AGI is to ensure the plan is scrutable, debatable and modifiable. Until it's ready to be executed by someone or something.

To understand X means you have the ability to act appropriately in response to situations related to X -- for instance, you understand how to make coffee in a kitchen if you can walk into a random kitchen and make coffee.

I am intrigued by Q* too. Other than name, here are the provided clues. Let's assume truth. 1. It was able to solve math problems that it hadn’t seen before (kinda breakthrough) 2. It allowed OpenAI to overcome limitations on obtaining high-quality data to train new models 1/n

Combining the mysterious magic of deep learning with symbolic search (aka neuro-symbolic or hybrid AI models) is something that @GaryMarcus , @Grady_Booch , others have predicted for a long time. Q* & GB's work hints at it as the future of large models.

Excellent debate initiated by @GaryMarcus What you just did is exactly what GPT3 can not do without "understanding", i.e identify gaps in its own knowledge: 1) ask questions to fill those gaps, OR 2) say "I screwed up" with any conviction It matters else you can't rely on it

Next-step prediction is beautiful because it encourages, as a model gets extremely good, learning the underlying process that produced that data. That is, if a model can predict what comes next super well, it must be close to having discovered the "underlying truth" of its data.
