GPT-5 is closer than you think and may be thinking better than you think

[John Clark]

Siqi Chen, an industry insider says that he has been told GPT-5  "is SO much closer than most people think" and it will be much more than just an incremental improvement . Specifically he says: 

"GPT-5 is scheduled to complete training by as early as December and Open AI expects it to achieve AGI. Which means we will all hotly debate whether it really achieves AGI. Which means it will."

Earlier this year when GPT-4 was released, I was getting the willies about it, simply because it was a new unexpected (by me) jump. Now, for 5 I want it to be harnessed to perform medical, biological, materials science assistance (Yes it is being pushed now I realized) so we can gain progress in living our lives. Secondly, unless anyone objects, why not test drive 5 and company, with QC? I get the willies on this as well, as if we're creating a new life. I am but a privative, peasant, hiding in the dark so these things disturb me. 

Anyway, lets gets these LLM's some real computing power. Do you think it will become conscious John (tremble)? In the conventional sense as you strongly suspect other Texans are conscious, but just not as good as you? (of course!).

It will take a while before any Quantum Computer can run anything as large as GPT, but it is now apparent that Quantum Computing is not needed to produce Superhuman intelligence and thus The Singularity, it would just be icing on the cake. Perhaps Quantum Computing will produce a singularity after what we now call The Singularity; but by then biological human beings will be long gone.

Yes. As I've said before, I think consciousness is easy but intelligence is hard, and GPT-4 is already intelligent.
