There have been a lot of ppl finding some new things with current frontier models already... I think all it took to find the PHP bug was one 1 line prompt.. I guess ppl just don't try it that much..

I think, AI is not waiting for humans to understand new science. While humans are busy understanding the new proofs, AI can already use the new findings to create 10 more, and based on those 10 more, some agents will create 100 more. Until the gap between human understanding and AI understanding is so large that unless we are using some research agents, we will not be able to contribute meaningfully on the scale we do it now. Agents will build some research database where they can built upon another, and our traditional peer review system with humans in the loop will be partially replaced, because requiering human understanding would slow down progress.

Well long story short, the tech bros are right and we will have super intelligence some time soon!

This seems very trivial... There are way more subtle and information dense ways to encode information in images.

This is what they are trying to do with Lean

Wrong. They are commonly used by millions.

Check out academic papers about:

1. Hierarchical skills, workflow, skill learning 2. Meta Harness, self-learning harnesses 3. Trace/trajectory representation 4. Common agentic benchmarks

But first more basic things like 5. Blog posts form anthropic 6. How Claude Code/PI/ Hermes!! agent works 7. Agent sessions/ Forking/ Hooks

Check out https://agents-last-exam.org/ there is still room for improvements!

There are certain physical limits. Calculations need to be done. Either less calculations are necessary for the intelligence, or u accept less intelligence. But there is a limit in what u can do with specific hardware.

Most importantly, after entering the elevator. First press the close button and then the floor. That way u, safe the time of pressing a button as the door is already closing.

Where are the sources for that?

Just switch the model, its not that much effort tbh. And u can also get a cheaper model than 2.5 lite for the same intelligence

This will soon happen with theoretical physics, computer science, and everything which can be verified cheaply. Then, we will have long running projects augmented by agents for 2-4 years while AI companies are collecting data of human workflows. After that we will see AI being able to do those projects by themselves. This will lead to super fast human progress and cheap products. The price of things will be bound by energy and natural resources. Interesting times are ahead of us
