Richard Sutton, a Turing Award winner, argues that scaling large language models (LLMs) solely with increased compute power is insufficient for achieving true artificial intelligence. He emphasizes the need for novel learning methods beyond current deep learning approaches. This perspective is shared by others, including former OpenAI researcher Tworek, who believes the focus on scaling transformers has misguided many scientists, while a new generation of startups is actively exploring these alternative methods.
