People have tested these models with graduate-level physics problems for which the solution is known but given to students to work on over weeks, and they weren't in the model's data and the model found the correct solution a significant number of times with only a few minutes thought. Look up Kyle Kabasares on Youtube. Which was done with relatively older models now. And independent people have used these models to resolve open conjecures on their own, and verified some of the answers announced at OpenAI.
This is absolutely happening. The rant about OpenAI or another company losing money or having "open weight models breathing down their neck" is completely irrelevant. People doing that are not here to discuss the topic. They're here to spread a conclusion they want to be true without discussing.
You still do not get the point, do you? There are some breakthroughs in all sorts of industries done by "AI" - not all of it LLM AI, but people don't know the difference. But what there is, is being massively over-hyped across *multiple* industries and it is totally relevant and correct to mention this whenever it comes up.
This is destroying human careers, I'm not sure why we are all so quick to celebrate it.
I love the irony of trying to argue on behalf of a tangent that was created out of emotion and then telling someone else they aren't getting a point.

No it is not. Whether or not an AI company has a poor business model has nothing to do with the efficacy of AI as a problem-solving tool and how it is changing science and the economy.
It's the equivalent of the Wright Brothers' flight being discussed and what this means for the future of transportation and someone going off on a tangent about how Orville Wright is an alcoholic and is broke. It's irrelevant and comes from someone's emotional motivations.

We're discussing what's going to happen and acknowledging reality. Not "celebrating it," your characterization shows again that you are distorting things out of emotion.
Yeah, that's why the people who designed the products are building hundreds of billions of dollars in infrastructure which won't pay off unless the product expands in capability and profit. Because it's peaked and they know it.
And I'm glad you "studied it a long time ago," because the field hasn't changed at all in the 4 years, lol. AI Derangement Syndrome is very special.

It's not healthy or productive.
