I’m not calling it a search algorithm. I’m saying they all do the same math, and doing the math with more parallelism and variables doesn’t make what it is a mystery.
Search algorithms searching for functions isn’t new. Not knowing what each parameter corresponds to because you made your model huge doesn’t make LLMs a mystery. It’s still functionally one part. The hormone system is as complex as LLMs. Regulation of neurotransmitters is as complex as LLMs. Ignoring those external factors that are critical to how it works, individual portions of the brain are more complex than LLMs, then are all interconnected on top of that.
I fully believe we’ll get to AGI eventually (probably not before we understand the brain a lot better), but the idea that one pretty simple algorithm is going to get us there is crazy. Human intelligence is a system of disparate systems of disparate systems at minimum.
