I know people here are very skeptical of AI in general, and there is definitely a lot of hype, but I think the progress in the last decade has been incredible.
Here are some quotes
“In my field of quantum physics, it gives significantly more detailed and coherent responses” than did the company’s last model, GPT-4o, says Mario Krenn, leader of the Artificial Scientist Lab at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light in Erlangen, Germany.
Strikingly, o1 has become the first large language model to beat PhD-level scholars on the hardest series of questions — the ‘diamond’ set — in a test called the Graduate-Level Google-Proof Q&A Benchmark (GPQA)1. OpenAI says that its scholars scored just under 70% on GPQA Diamond, and o1 scored 78% overall, with a particularly high score of 93% in physics
OpenAI also tested o1 on a qualifying exam for the International Mathematics Olympiad. Its previous best model, GPT-4o, correctly solved only 13% of the problems, whereas o1 scored 83%.
Kyle Kabasares, a data scientist at the Bay Area Environmental Research Institute in Moffett Field, California, used o1 to replicate some coding from his PhD project that calculated the mass of black holes. “I was just in awe,” he says, noting that it took o1 about an hour to accomplish what took him many months.
Catherine Brownstein, a geneticist at Boston Children’s Hospital in Massachusetts, says the hospital is currently testing several AI systems, including o1-preview, for applications such as connecting the dots between patient characteristics and genes for rare diseases. She says o1 “is more accurate and gives options I didn’t think were possible from a chatbot”.
See?
This is so much more credible than going “I hate AI, AI is shit”
Posters like UlyssesT making everyone look bad.
Shut the fuck up. Nobody wanted to respond to you (except RedWizard, he must have the patience of a saint) because we’ve already done this topic to death, and leading with an ableist meme doesn’t exactly imply you’re acting in good faith.
You didn’t post anything meaningful in return, just concern trolling and whining about my lack of civility.
You came here claiming the naysayers were “screeching” from the very start. You don’t deserve civility, and your cowardice demonstrates you had nothing to offer in response except smugposting and blind faith in your billionaire masters.
Hey, you’re talkin’ about my man UlyssesT all wrong, it’s the wrong tone. You do it again, and I’ll have to pull out the PPB. Still nothing to say though, I see. Do you not have much of a defense against the idea that the slop slot machine everyone worships is destroying communities and the ecosystem at large? I’m not sure how you can look at the comment I left and have so little to say about these truths. Do you believe the ends justify the means in some way? What is it?
You’re going to have to wait a while.
Oh well!
