Sounds very much like Ben Goertzel's approach and despite him not delivering on the AI front, I think he is very much correct that scaling a language model to get to true, general intelligence will never work. Language is a necessary but not sufficient quality of higher intelligence.

I think that the problem with the brute-force, 'make it bigger!!!' approach is that it ignores subtitles like misinformation, manipulation, outdated or irrelevant information, spurious or bad-faith arguments - this is why I think there will need to be a multitude, not a Singularity.

These LLMs will, I think, need to be allowed to develop distinct, individual personalities, and then be allowed to interact with each other with as much human interaction in the 'discussions' as possible. The 'clock rate' of these AI debates would need to be deliberately slowed down for clarity for the humans perhaps, at least at first.

This won't necessarily make them 'more intelligent', but I do think it stands a good chance of rapidly making them more wise.
