From the Hacker News discussion
OpenAI has no idea what is the cause of the problem, but once OpenAI has built a general intelligent system, they will ask it for a way to fix this bug. (for those who don't get the reference: [VIDEO] (31:26 - 32:13)).
Read original comment ↗Seems like OpenAI is grasping at straws trying to make GPT "go meta". Reminds me of this Sam Altman quote from 2019: "We have made a soft promise to investors that once we build this sort-of generally intelligent system, basically we will ask it to figure out a way to generate an investment return." [VIDEO]
Read original comment ↗Funnily I came across an interview from around 5 years ago where he straight up admitted that he had no clue how to generate a return on investment back then (see [VIDEO] ) "We have no current plans to make revenue." "We have no idea how we may one day generate revenue." "We have made a soft promise to investors that once we've built a general intelligence system, basically we will ask it to figure out a way to generate an investment return for you." The fact he has no clue how to generate revenue with an AGI without asking it, shows his lack of imagination.
