Shared subject first, then similar wording. They may agree or disagree.

• AI progress is faster than people expect, and ordinary scaling can be enough to solve problems that looked very hard. SAScott Alexander12 Sept 2022
• Deep learning will be understood very differently in thirty years than it is today. COChristopher Olah3 Sept 2015
• The technical core of the AI industry lacks a high hit rate for predicting model success in real-world usage. NLNathan Lambert17 Oct 2026
• Large language models are broad and impressive but not precise, and are not fundamentally about deep computation. SWStephen Wolfram23 Feb 2026
• The AI research cycle from idea to experiment will likely soon be 10x faster, but that may not make researchers 10x more productive in the field's net understanding. NLNathan Lambert22 Sept 2026
