There is a problem with context length, but than given the fact that us humans have even less context length and can get carried away in conversation... I think 32kb context length is actually much greater leap in GPT4 than other metrics if you want it to tackle more complex tasks, but it is "double gated". Again, even humans have problems with long context even in pretty "undemanding" tasks like reading fiction, that's why books have chapters I presume :) Btw, anterograde amnesia is a good example how humans would look like w/o longterm memory, heh.

Anyway, I'm sure a set of more compact models trained on much more high-quality data is the way to go - or at least fine-tuned by high-quality data, coupled with APIs and other symbolic tools, and multimodality (sketches, graphs, charts) as input AND output is absolutely nessesary to have a system that can be more than "digital assistant".

Yeah great summary related to the memory.

My next target may be related to compact models (which preserve good results), as I also believe it is the way to go :D

Yea, I'm sure that compact-ish distilled, specialised models trained on high quality, multimodal data is the way to go.

What's interesting, once generative models get good enough to produce synthetic data that is OF HIGHER QUALITY than laion/common crawl/etc, it should improve model quality which should allow to generate better synthetic data... not exactly singularity, but certainly one aspect of it :)

Your idea sounds like GAN - maybe one model will generate high-quality synthetic data and another one try to 'discriminate' it, then they may output an ultra-high quality one finally (for another model to eat). And an AI model community is formed to self-improve...

Yea, in a way something like this was already done with LLAMA-Alpaca finetune - they used chatgpt to generate instuct finetune dataset, what, while far from pefrect, worked pretty damn well.
