Specialized AIs aren’t the future. Somehow LLMs are taking over specialized models.

Turns out that not knowing Beethoven doesn’t make AI a better mathematician, and not knowing Shakespeare doesn’t make AI better at robotics either.

Generalization wins.
Clearest sign of AGI.

Fable 5.2 shows substantially improved skills in controlling physical robots, even on tasks it has never explicitly been trained to do.

On RoboDojo, a benchmark with a simulated two-arm robot, it outperformed other models and most AI systems built to control robots.

Laziness is good & natural. Every form of life aims to minimize effort & maximize reward.

We're so lazy that we prefer to commit unfathomable cognitive effort inventing contraptions (fun) to save us from another day of repetitive work (boring).

“AI is for lazy people.”

Yes. Exactly.

Lazy people invented almost everything worth having.

Someone was too lazy to carry things, so we got the wheel. Too lazy to wash clothes by hand, so we got the washing machine. Too lazy to do math on paper, so we got the calculator. Too lazy to walk, so we got the car.

Every great invention in history started with someone saying “I really don’t want to do this anymore.”

Hard work was never the goal.

It was the price we paid because we didn’t have anything better.

Now we do.

Call me lazy all you want.

I’m in very good company.

Testing Opus 5.5 by curiosity, also because I'm out of token with Astra.

The Claude Desktop app is noticably snappier than the ChatGPT one. Of course it's not bloated with thousands of chats across dozens of projects, but still...
