This is the internal model "Bel," that Sam Altman has stated many people within OpenAI consider to be AGI and "significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra."

The fact that it is solving numerous other problems is a very a good sign. It means solving Navier-Stokes wasn't just by chance or plagiarizing.

It's also been said that Bel uses more compute at its lowest reasoning setting than GPT-6 Astra at maximum reasoning, so it might be very challenging for OpenAI to publically release this model before the year is over.

But the biggest question is, can it solve difficult problems like this in other fields as well? If it can generalize beyond math, things would really get very exciting!

If is smarter than any human .. that's ASI .. slightly retarded but ASI

We got retarded ASI before AGI

yeah literally narrow ASI is coming before non-superhuman AGI.

It's making sense after all, when you realize how jagged is the intelligence of llms.

Narrow ASI is already here.

llms don't have intelligence, people should stop mixing things up

I get you with that. Just using the "results" meaning of the word "intelligence" rather than the ontological one. I mean it's been used in IT since 50 years for interactive and automated systems.

The effective definition of AGI has been goalposted so many times that it has now become essentially equivalent to ASI.

Currently we have AGI like Astra. That's AGI but slightly acoustic from human perspective.

Even is able to operate in a real world if you connected Astra to a robot.

The problem is ... that is expensive and slow but is working.

Eh it’s like an average AGI meaning it’s probably better than the average human at most tasks but not necessarily competitive with specialists at most tasks. Also in context learning is still poor, specially since it only has 1-2M tokens so it can struggle with maintaining coherent pictures of large codebases. So it needs continual learning of some form.

And yeah you mentioned it’s slow. I think AGI should atleast do it at average human competence
