i agree there are many works in AI which are far different from large language models but I saw some bad comments negating any potential for artificial intelligence so I’m happy to see we agree on this.
As for “causation”, maybe we can agree there are many levels of causation … like what’s the cause of the cause … i will not be surprised when we see artificial systems good at this game. i will not be surprised either when robots, driven by artificial intelligence, begin to read the world by themselves, then, built new models of advance robots and evolve by themselves.
