Three years ago these things could barely write coherent sentences, now they can replace a substantial number of human workers, three years from now? Who the fuck knows, emergent abilities are hard to predict in these models by definition, but new ones Keep Appearing when they train larger and larger ones in higher quality data. This means large scale social disruption at best and catastrophe (everything from AI enabled bioterrorism to AI propaganda-driven fascism) at worst.
