Apple Researchers Just Released a Damning Paper That Pours Cold Water on the Entire AI Industry
Researchers at Apple have released a damning paper that throws cold water on the "reasoning" capabilities of modern AIs.
The authors — who include Samy Bengio, the director of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Research at the software and hardware giant — argue that the existing approach to benchmarking "often suffers from data contamination and does not provide insights into the reasoning traces’ structure and quality." The researchers claim their findings raise "crucial questions" about the current crop of AI models' "true reasoning capabilities," undercutting a much-hyped new avenue in the burgeoning industry. That's despite tens of billions of dollars being poured into the tech's development, with the likes of OpenAI, Google, and Meta, constructing enormous data centers to run increasingly power-hungry AI models.
