Has the prospect of AGI seeming close influenced any of your life/career decisions so far?

i’m not sure we’re as close as the media keeps reporting. Seems we’re great at refining the llms in silos but it seems we’ve still got some ground to cover before we crack AGI tho the past couple of years completely altered how we certainly work pre-covid from image creating to writing, so for me it’s been more of an embrace than shift wbu?

I think AI being proficient at building software is a key factor for disrupting the world as we know it, and that’s more along the lines of what I’m thinking about Personally haven’t made any material decisions based on the assumption that the world will be fundamentally different soon yet, but I have noticed myself subconsciously factoring it into my longer term planning a bit recently

AI building software is really just a euphemism for a higher-level programming language to me (at least with the current LLM approach). This will certainly increase programmer productivity and increase access to building apps...but is that in itself really something that would restructure society?

def agree with that outlook. the fact that we can use the llms for coding certainly changes what we used to think was “rapid deployment” and hope the next iteration will be testing! we’re def already seeing changes in how these ai systems alter jobs, the question is what will we be doing to elevate ourselves in the process i wrote this piece a little over a year ago with similar future questions as to how we grow beyond or not. time will tell https://objkt.com/tokens/KT1R1JTr6vRyd8tfmnZfyvkNJkQ179EWaLzB/2
