Interesting that people seem to have this assumption.
"The lesson is considered "bitter" because it is less anthropocentric than many researchers expected and so they have been slow to accept it."
I mean we are so many people on the planet, its easy to feel useless when you know you can get replaced by millions of other humans. How is that different being replaced by a computer?
I was not sure how AGI would come to us, but I assumed there will be AGI in the future.
Weirdest thing for me is mathematics and physics: I assumed that would be such an easy field to find something 'new' through brute force alone, im more shocked that this is only happening now.
I realized with DeepMind and Alphafold that the smartest people with the best tools are in the industry and specificly in the it industry because they are a lot better using tools to help them than normal researchers who struggle writing code.
