Criticisms like this are levied against an excessively narrow (obsolete?) characterisation of what is happening in the AI space currently.
After reading about o3's performance on ARC-AGI, I strongly suspect people will not be so flippantly dismissive of the inherent limits of these technologies by this time next year. I'm genuinely surprised at how myopic HN commentary is on this topic in general. Maybe because the implications are almost unthinkably profound.
Anyway, OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, and everyone else are well aware of these types of criticisms, and are making significant, measurable progress towards architecturally solving the deficiencies.
