I'm curious about that. Those models are definitely more knowledgeable than a well educated human, but so is Google search, and has been for a long time. But are they as intelligent as a well educated human? I feel like there's a huge qualitative difference. I trust the intelligence of those models much less than an educated human.

If we talk about a median well-educated human, o1 likely passes the bar. Quite a few tests of reasoning suggests that’s the case. An example:

“Preprint out today that tests o1-preview's medical reasoning experiments against a baseline of 100s of clinicians.

In this case the title says it all:

Have you tried using o1 with a variety of problems?
