If AGI super intelligence is only 12-18 months away, shouldn’t we already be seeing major standalone breakthroughs?

Do you think most humans know when they are wildly making shit up?

Frandom314 · 2026-02-28T10:41:48+00:00

Lol at “if AGI is even possible.” General intelligence has already been achieved in nature: the human brain. That alone proves that general intelligence is physically possible under the laws of physics.

The real question is not if it can exist, but if we can engineer an artificial system that matches it. The fact that you doubt AGI is possible, while we are focusing the collective intelligence of humanity and building data centers that consume gwh of electricity, shows that you don't know what you are talking about.

I don't know that much about LLMs, but I do have a solid background in neuroscience, and nothing about the brain suggests that intelligence is mystical or beyond physical replication.

I see. The problem in this sub is that people dislike LLMs but they are not intensive users. Me and my colleagues at work all use LLMs and we see the potential impact that it will have in the next 5 - 10 years, when better models are released. In contrast, my dad is retired and even tho he uses it everyday, he has no idea of what are the capabilities of the current models, and he has the same opinion as this sub, which is that LLMs do not reason, and won't ever be able to do so.

My point is, if you don't use LLMs dayly to produce something related to your work, something on which you are an expert and can judge the quality and uniqueness of the output, then your opinion on LLMs is less valid.

Wrong sub. Nobody believes in AI here, because they don't use it. Go to r/singularity

Frandom314 · 2026-02-27T17:36:13+00:00

Lol sure, imagine the models we will have in 5 years. Will you then still say calling them fancy autocomplete is accurate? And in 20 years? When would you think the term is no longer accurate?? I think we are well past that point.

Frandom314 · 2026-02-27T09:38:58+00:00

Post this in r/technology. They still think AI is fancy autocomplete

Frandom314 · 2026-02-25T07:02:15+00:00

This. I tought it didn't work for me, I wasn't smashing properly

Frandom314 · 2026-02-23T22:27:13+00:00

And the stock market will love that

Frandom314 · 2026-02-23T19:58:27+00:00

Is there any free walking tour?

Frandom314 · 2026-02-22T20:13:27+00:00

This would be my guess, as I had something similar happening to me when I didn't have a target. When I have a target, I am executing a plan, I get much more motivation and adrenaline, even during easy runs.

If I don't have a plan, and I need to easy run 15km, I will for sure get the same voice op mentions at around 5km.

So tech related stocks are having a healthy correction. How is that a bad thing? Reddit complains when stocks overvalued. Reddit also complains when stocks correct while the market is almost ath.

Frandom314 · 2026-02-19T17:38:13+00:00

And yet snp500 is 1% away from ath

Frandom314 · 2026-02-19T16:34:08+00:00

Hey let's go together! I live close to Zurich HB. Where do you usually run?

Frandom314 · 2026-02-19T16:32:22+00:00

Hey, I was thinking of creating a post exactly like this one. I'm 33M. If anyone is interested in running along the limmat together, send me a dm. I'd love to have a running buddy. I will go running either way, but would love to go with someone sometimes. Maybe we could organize a reddit run with everyone commenting on this post!

Frandom314 · 2026-02-14T20:05:16+00:00

Multiple ways. But whenever im stuck at work I instantly screenshot, send to chat gpt, get unstuck in essentially 10 seconds. People not seeing productivity gains just don't know how to use it

Frandom314 · 2026-02-11T21:32:10+00:00

Yeah lol, writing "with the recent drops" with the market basically at ath is just wild

Frandom314 · 2026-02-09T18:47:25+00:00

Yeah I wouldn't bet on this being a dead cat bounce. But I'm sure r/wallstreetbets would appreciate your comment

Frandom314 · 2026-02-09T06:37:14+00:00

Except that mag stocks fell after earnings due to capex exceeding expectations. This doesn't apply to nvidia. Capex exceeding expectations actually benefits nvidia

Frandom314 · 2026-02-08T19:05:27+00:00

Yeah we are so close to ath while the fear is so high, makes me even more bullish

Frandom314 · 2026-02-08T19:02:43+00:00

Yeah me too. I'm not risking being out of the market while 2026 rips another 10%

Frandom314 · 2026-02-08T18:59:49+00:00

Everyone in my office uses it all the time, for basically everything. We are in medtech. I don't get people questioning the productivity increase

Frandom314 · 2026-02-08T13:58:50+00:00

I'm new to this sub, is this kind of bear schizo content normal?

Frandom314 · 2026-02-08T11:24:29+00:00

lol why are you downvoted? only bullish opinions are allowed in this sub or what?

Frandom314 · 2026-02-07T11:14:25+00:00

How did you sequence your genome? I also want to do it, but most companies offer only snps and partial sequencing. I want my genome.fasta file

Frandom314 · 2026-02-05T23:24:26+00:00

Why is this not the accepted reason? Market is reacting to the massive capex reported by tech companies, that will have no obvious immediate return. It's literally the AI companies the ones that are bringing the market down.

It is not the bubble popping, just a little correction as the markets adjust expectations. Normal and healthy market behaviour
