>>Outside of software, most adult professionals in my network had a play with chatgpt and have long since abandoned their accounts.
I know an architect, after much encouraging her to use it. She said ChatGPT most of the times would make bedroom window into a rest room. Its kind of hilarious because guessing the next word, and spatial thinking seem to be very different beasts altogether. And in some way might be two different tracks of intelligence. Like two different types of AGI.
A picture is better than thousand words - A saying.
My guess is a picture is better than a infinite words. How do you explain something as it exists, you can use as many words, phrases, metaphors and similes. But really is it possible to describe something in words and have two different people, or even a computer program not imagine it very differently?
Another way of looking at this is language itself might be several layers below intelligence. If you see you can go close but never accurate describe what you are thinking. If that is the case we are truly cooked and might never have AGI itself as there is only that far you can represent something you don't understand by guessing.
