LLM Capabilities Growing Several Times Faster Than Moore’s Law
By
–
Here's a good estimate of how fast the capabilities of LLMs have been growing: several times as fast as Moore's Law! The compute needed to achieve the same outcome halving every 5 to 14 months, with no sign of slowing. Most gains are from bigger scale. https://

Coherence Creation vs Self Organization in AI Systems
By
–
I think that the coherence creation may be necessary to overcome the shortcomings of a prediction-only approach, but it's not obvious to me that AI needs self organization.

Consciousness as Coherence Creation in Self-Organizing Systems
By
