The author discusses the philosophical debate in AI regarding whether large language models build internal world models or merely pattern-match, drawing a parallel to a similar stagnation debate in fundamental physics. In practical AI development, a principal-agent problem arises with code review, which can be managed by using agents to make changes, test them, and create pull requests for other agents to review. The author also notes that direct computer use for AI tasks is significantly more expensive than using structured APIs, suggesting APIs will become the preferred method for agent automation. AI
IMPACT Discusses the ongoing debate about LLM capabilities and the practical challenges of agent development, highlighting cost-effectiveness of APIs over direct computation.
