The main drivers for AI progress recently have been:

  • Availability of massive amounts of structured data that is easily accessed via the Internet.
  • Massive GPU farms in cloud infrastructure, used for the statistical math these AI systems need.

Most of the algorithms were written or understood back in the 60s, but everything was stored on paper back then, and there were no GPUs for fast matrix math.

The question seems ambiguous. I wouldn't have jumped to the same conclusion.

Frankly I'd be worrying about this guy wearing the same shirt every day for a week, or is there something odd about their marriage that she's only home infrequently enough for this to work without being a hygiene problem. Or did she buy him like a whole wardrobe of doggy themed shirts?

how many humans remember what you said two messages ago lol

(and actually it can if you prepend the messages effectively giving it a bit of short term memory, a pretty fricking easy thing to do)

humans will not have a perfect short term recall of up to 4000 characters much less tokens so actually it is ironically superhuman along the axis you are criticizing it for XD

(copilot has a context window of like 8000 characters btw and they will only get even better)
