A common view is that human level AGI will require a parameter count in the order of magnitude of the brain’s 100 trillion synapses. The large language models and image generators are only about 1/1000 of that, but they already contain more information than a single human

Human-level AGI could run in a box, not data centers

could ever possibly know. It is at least plausible that human level AGI might initially run in a box instead of an entire data center. Some still hope for quantum magic in the neurons; I think it more likely that they are actually kind of crappy computational elements.

Prompt Examples: Impact on Model Performance and Variation

Depends on the prompt! More examples is especially helpful when the examples relate to one another and contain explicit information to inform future generations. But too many examples can lead to decreased performance and variation in responses.

Mastering Prompt Engineering: Learning Through Practice and Intuition
By
–
It’s fascinating to see how others prompt GPT-3. There’s no ‘one right answer’ to design any prompt. Because there’s no go-to way to learn it, most people learn by doing, building unique intuition along the way. So, everyone’s prompts look very different!

Detecting Major AI Breakthroughs Before They Happen
By
–
a thing about research i didn't get before openai: frequently before a big idea gets figured it out, multiple teams can sort of detect it on radar through the fog. you get an idea of where it's going to be and the rough shape far before anyone actually lays eyes on it.
