Amazing podcast and I would recommend you to patiently go through the 2 Hour 26 minutes podcat at 0.80X Speed.

I am always a fan of Andrej. And I really liked the clarity of his thoughts and the conviction with which he has explained various topics such as AGI, Evolution of intelligence, Future of Education etc. 

Here is the summary of the following topics discussed in detail

00:00:00 – AGI is still a decade away 00:30:33 – LLM cognitive deficits 00:40:53 – RL is terrible 00:50:26 – How do humans learn? 01:07:13 – AGI will blend into 2% GDP growth 01:18:24 – ASI 01:33:38 – Evolution of intelligence & culture 01:43:43 - Why self driving took so long 01:57:08 - Future of education

They discuss a wide range of topics, and it's always a treat to listen to Andrej's point of view. They delve deep into a variety of aspects.

Personally I am waiting for the teaching agent or the Tutor which Andrej is working on and how it revolutionizes the education.
