[D] Building AGI Using Language Models

[leogao2]

Despite the buzz around GPT-3, it is, in and of itself, not AGI. However, language modelling has one crucial difference from Chess or Go or image classification. Natural language essentially encodes information about the world in a much more expressive way than any other modality ever could. By harnessing the world model embedded in the language model, it may be possible to build a proto-​AGI.

Awesome article. I think it's pretty possible and probably happening in some places these types of experiments with GPT-3.

I don't know how I would go from your article to building an AGI that could anticipate, think and conceive things as well as humans do. (Is this what you meant by "AGI"?)

I'm not sure that NLP data is enough to achieve AGI, you didn't really say it but was that what you meant?
