This seems kind of aggrandizing when BigAI shifts goalposts constantly whether it's "we created AGI" by a definition that an autopilot in a commercial plane fulfills or "Maths research" where everyone else has to do the actual research.

They are talking about lower level goals that are used during training. E.g. Tasks with quantifiable outcomes that can be programmatically verified.

I have no idea what your comment means...

Shifting goalposts is shifting goalposts, doesn't matter if it's a hackernews comment or a 'BigAI' marketing blurb.

My statement was that AI is dramatically accelerating research that has objective goals, idgaf what 'BigAI' does.
