alt Hacker NewsI've seen this characterization of Marcus here, and it seems to follow the sentiment of the AI leaders he referenced in the article.
But, I've yet to see where he's been wrong (or, particularly more wrong than the AI-thinking and leadership he's questioning). Do you have any citations?
Also, if you stopped on seeing his name, I'd encourage you to take another look—specifically the sections wherein he discusses AI-leadership's prior dismissal of his doubts and their subsequent walk-backs of their own claims.
Would be interested in your take on that.
Reasoning LLMs getting better at ARC-AGI prove that they are able to solve tasks that are symbolic without putting in specific search on the CPU (which is the brute force method).
It's never ,,pure scaling'' (just running the same algorithm on more hardware), but there's continues improvement on how to be even more algorithmically efficient (and algorithmic scaling is faster than hardware scaling).
