      If ChatGPT were marketed as a toaster nobody would bat an eye. The reason so many are laughing is because ChatGPT is marketed as a general intelligence tool.

        Do you have any OpenAI stuff (ad, interview, presentation…) That claims it’s AGI? Because I’ve never seen such thing, only people hyping it for clicks and ad revenue

          I was very careful not to use the term AGI for this reason. General intelligence tool isn’t the same thing. It’s a much weaker claim, yet it’s also a far stronger claim than any purpose-built software. The ambiguity is part of their marketing strategy.

            Question remains. Any marketing about it being general intelligence? Not general use, but general intelligence.

              No, though there’s been plenty of marketing where they claim “we know how to build AGI.”

              They have marketed ChatGPT as a general purpose AI from the very beginning, though the question of how to leverage that has remained open.

      Your vacuum uses more power than a 150,000-person city just to clean an 8’ square rug?

      That does suck.

      Heh.
