April 30, 2024Towards AGI: Making LLMs Better at Reasoning (1/2)
Techniques to make LLMs proficient in math and symbolic reasoning – by a former ML Engineer Photo generate by DALL-E 3 with prompt ‘AI that can reason and looks like a mathematician’ In a latest news by Reuters, several OpenAI staff researchers wrote a letter to the board of directors warning them of a powerful AI discovery (potential AGI) from an internal project named Q-Star that they said could threaten humanity. The letter claims that the AI can already solve grade-school level math problems better than humans. But how can math proficiency lead to AGI? A machine that can perform mathematics beyond rote memorization should, in theory, be able to learn to do other tasks that build on existing information, such as writing computer code or drawing conclusions from a news article, remarkably well.
