How do we define intelligence?
Blog: Decision Management Community
Dan Everett wrote in Linkedin comments: from Oxford Dictionary
intelligence: the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills.
LLMs have developed capabilities that programmers did not specifically program.
Language translations Theory of mind Looks like that meets the acquire skills requirement.
LLMs can generate their own training data to improve their performance,
By applying knowledge of the data they have been trained on.
No external input required. Looks like that meets the apply knowledge requirement.
Is that the way humans work? No. But there are many examples of intelligence outside of humans.
Trees can recognize saplings from their seeds and direct resources to those saplings. Is that intelligence?
