Caveat Computator: Navigating the Paradox of Foundation Model Dependency in the AI Ecosystem

As we witness the astounding meteoric ascent of Foundation Models (eg. transformer-based large language models LLM/SSN/LSSM), I can't help but feel both excitement and trepidation. These models, like OpenAI's GPT, have been revolutionizing a multitude of tasks, from summarization to anomaly detection to code generation. Despite the undeniable, almost surreal and unreasonable effectiveness of these…

The Sparks of AGI or the Flickers of Overhype

As an AI practitioner, I cannot overstate the importance of caution when evaluating the recent paper, "Sparks of Artificial General Intelligence: Early experiments with GPT-4". While GPT-4's capabilities are undeniably impressive, we must not let auto-regressive models predicting sequences in the most conceivable manner deceive us into believing that AGI is imminent. The paper claims…
