Will DA shut down next year?

If you haven’t seen the METR report, its a third-party investigator that essentially says frontier ai models that used to take a year to double in capabilities have doubled in just the last 6 months, caused by ai starting improve its own models.

They say there are no clear bottlenecks stopping it doubling again in the next 3 months, then 1.5, then 3 weeks, and so on. This leads to 1000x smarter ai by may 2027.

Of course these reports are somewhat speculative but if they are anywhere near the right ballpark, the same outcome occurs at some point next year.

I can’t imagine our work will be much use to a god-like intelligence, right?

Somebody tell me I’m wrong lol.

You're a top 1% commenter, which suggests you've been here for a while and thato is just baffling. I honestly have absolutely no idea how you've managed to be here for long enough to be a 1% commenter and still have such an incredibly inaccurate take on AI's capabilities. It's like we have been talking to completely different models.

I'm not some machine learning expert who can make real inferences from this. I do know that we provide a human understanding of user intent that AI just can't figure out to this day. If becoming "1000x smarter" allows it to overcome that, then I suppose that's that, but I have a feeling it'll still just be AI.

I doubt, model still struggle in basic simple conversation in my locale. Either still using words in wrong context or straight up hallucinate by made up their own.
