LLMs are a key piece of understanding that token sequences can trigger actions in the real world. AGI is here. You can trivially spin up a computer using agent to self improve itself to being a competent office worker



If agents can self improve why hasn't gpt4 improved itself into gpt5 yet


Agents can trivially self improve. I'd be happy to show you - contact me at [email protected]

Why wouldn't you hand me 35 million dollars right now if I can clearly illustrate to you that I have technology you haven't seen? Edge. Maybe you know something I don't, or maybe you just haven't seen it. While loops go hard ;)

They don't need to release their internal developments to you to show that they can scale their plan - they can show incremental improvements to benchmarks. We can instruct the AI over time to get it to be superhuman, no need for any fundamental innovations anymore


Perhaps you should pitch that to a VC?


I don't know anyone. That would be cool though, I basically have it running already.


Has it passed the Turing Test?

Keep in mind that the actual test is adversarial - a human is simultaneously chatting via text with a human and a program, knowing that one of them is not human, and trying to divine which is an artificial machine.


And the human and machine under tests are aware of that, and can play off each other.


You could ask the system for advice for how to find a VC to pitch to.

https://chatgpt.com/share/6769217c-4848-8009-9107-c2db122f08... is what advice ChatGPT has to give. I'm not sure if it's any good, but it's a few ideas you can try out.


Tokens don't need to be text either, you can move to higher level "take_action" semantics where "stream back 1 character to session#117" as every single function call. Training cheap models that can do things in the real world is going to change a huge amount of present capabilities over the next 10 years


can you share learning resources on this topic


No but if you want to join the Distributed Systems Corporation, you should email [email protected]


> You can trivially spin up a computer using agent to self improve itself to being a competent office worker

If that was true, office workers would be being replaced at large scale and we'd know about it.


its happening right now, its just demo quality. it's being worked on now


So it's not trivial and you don't have competent AI office workers.


Sorry you're dealing with cope. Deal with it fast, things are happening
