BlockBeats News, December 16, OpenAI co-founder Ilya Sutskever recently spoke at the Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS) 2024 conference held in Vancouver, Canada, where he stated that the era of pre-trained artificial intelligence is coming to an end and predicted the rise of AI superintelligence.
Sutskever stated that the improvement of computing power through better hardware, software, and machine learning algorithms is outpacing the total amount of data available for training artificial intelligence models, comparing data to fossil fuels that will eventually run out.
He said: 'Data is not increasing because we only have one internet. You could even say that data is the fossil fuel of artificial intelligence. It was created in some way, and now we are using it; we have reached peak data, and there will be no more – we have to deal with the data we have.'
Sutskever predicts that agent AI, synthetic data, and inference-time computation are the next development directions for artificial intelligence, which will ultimately give rise to superintelligent AI. (Cointelegraph)
