We don't even have AI which can do useful things yet. The LLMs these companies make are fun toys, but not useful tools (yes, I know that hype-prone people are using them as such regardless). It beggars belief that we will go from "it's a fun toy but can't do real work" to "this can do things without even needing human supervision" without a major leap in capabilities.

Continual Learning, it's a barrier that's been there from the very start and we've never had a solution to it.

There are no solutions even at the small scale. We fundamentally don't understand what it is or how to do it.

If you could solve it perfectly on Mnist just scale and then we get AGI.

What barriers have fallen? Computers still can't even drive cars

Even with cutting edge technology the number of transistors on a chip is nowhere close to the number of neurons in the brain.

Creativity, tastes, desires?

All the LLM tech so far still requires a human to actually prompt them.
