ChatGPT does not represent \”true AI\” according to a computer scientist.
AI is among the oldest human dreams. The first mention of AI dates back to ancient Greece, when Hephaestus the blacksmith, god’s blacksmith, had the ability to create metal creatures. Since then, variations on this theme have been featured in fiction and myth. AI was not plausible until the invention of computers in the late 1940s.
Computers are machines which follow instructions. Computers follow instructions. All of your programs, including your web browser, email client and word processor, are essentially these detailed instructions. If \”true AI\”, the dream of computers as intelligent as humans, is indeed possible, then this will also be a recipe. To make AI a real thing, we only need to find the right recipe. What would such a formula look like? Has the recent buzz about ChatGPT (large language models, or LLMs) — to use their correct name — and GPT-4 — finally led us to a recipe for AI?
