Sean Carroll's Mindscape: Science, Society, Philosophy, Culture, Arts, and IdeasThe Artificial Intelligence landscape is changing with remarkable speed these days, and the capability of Large Language Models in particular has led to speculation (and hope, and fear) that we could be on the verge of achieving Artificial General Intelligence.
