Gergely Orosz argues that LLMs, as probability distributions that generate the next token, do not meet common understanding of intelligence, so even the term "artificial intelligence" is a stretch. He says hallucination is a feature of this design rather than a bug, and criticizes renaming LLMs as "superintelligence." Simon Willison's reply calls the "Super Intelligence" label stupid.
To me, even “artificial intelligence” was a stretch given LLMs are probability distributions and do not meet our common understanding of “intelligence.” Hallucination is a feature not a bug; generating the next token and the next also.
Renaming LLMs to “superintelligence” 😱
This "Super Intelligence" thing is just so, so, so stupid I can't evenView quoted post on X
