Скачать или смотреть Is AI a Bubble? Gary Marcus on GPT-5 Hype and the Future of AI

Has OpenAI made the WRONG bet?

Gary Marcus argues that OpenAI is taking the wrong approach - and the AI bubble is real. We walk through why GPT-5 underwhelmed, where the scaling paradigm breaks, and what might really get us to AGI.

Gary explains:

– Why the economics don’t add up for current AI
– Why GPT-5 isn’t as good as expected
– The core LLM limitations and why the scaling paradigm fails
– Why AI won’t take your job in the near term
– A practical path to AGI (hybrid / neuro-symbolic, world models)

We also debate whether investors are over- or under-valuing AI, what productivity gains are real, and how long it will take before AI truly replaces jobs.
