Bill Gates feels Generative AI has plateaued, says GPT-5 will not be any better::The billionaire philanthropist in an interview with German newspaper Handelsblatt, shared his thoughts on Artificial general intelligence, climate change, and the scope of AI in the future.
Only if that answer is already out there and in the model. So pretty much a Google search away.
GPT isn’t coming up with new math or science facts (at least not real ones).
It literally is a word predictor, an insanely complex one, it’s the best way to describe it. If you start with layers, parameters and so on most people lose interest. But there’s some really good explanations around.
Generic AI (real AI) has internal logic, can learn and improve itself and can do self motivated actions. Chat GPT can tell you exactly how to create an account and order something from Amazon, but despite being able to put that text out it will never be able to actually follow them itself.

That’s not true. I wanted a vba script for Excel. I don’t know vba or excel so I spent hours searching Google for help. There were explanations of functions but no working code. I tried GPT for the fun of it and it spit back working code. Code that was nowhere on the Internet.
It was able to put together functions into working code based on the definition of functions, not simply cutting and pasting what somebody else had already written.
This is a really good ELI5 explanation of its limit.

That would still give it too much credit in that case. It’s purely an input output system. You put text in (the prompt), you get text out (the result). If there is no input from you, there is no output. It doesn’t have any intrinsic functionality that runs on its own.
Maybe a bit too much for an ELI5.
