"Diminishing returns" and "algorithmic breakthrough" are kind of the same thing in this context, no? If we don't have algorithmic breakthrough, we are likely to hit diminishing returns of the current models.

@OlegEterevsky I see your point and indeed there is some overlap, even if not totally, I think. For example, Yann LeCun is claiming that LLMs will never lead to AGI and that we are still missing the algorithms to achieve it, even if there's been substantial progress in that direction

@SimoneRomeo Yann LeCun also claims that company law is enough to align with humanity's values human-mind-basid systems smarter than any individual human, and extrapolates that to it being able to control any AI.

The assertion that company law is able to align even companies is clearly false. Proof by counterexample: LeCun's own employer Meta.
