We need superknowledge before superintelligence

This is just blatant self-promotion. I&#x27;m not a fan of Google either, but running my last 5 searches through Exa I&#x27;m not even getting DuckDuckGo-quality responses. And you&#x27;re advertising yourself in the corner, patting your own back in blogposts, ushering me towards a pricing page and telling me scary stories before I go.<p>Maybe we should stop super-washing things and sell products on their literal merit. Google isn&#x27;t the premier search provider because they&#x27;re &quot;super&quot; anything, they&#x27;re successful because they&#x27;re free and get out of your way.

I am having trouble deciding if he is arguing for a better api and a dystopian level of knowledge on individuals amd private businesses or just for a better api and thr examples are just mostly super dystopian.....

What does this company need an all-seeing eye for? Directory listings of every building and recursive search on the long-tail of typical search engine blind spots don&#x27;t seem profitable enough on their own.

&gt; <i>&quot;We’ll soon have near-AGI intelligences (GPT-5)&quot;</i><p>Does anyone technical believe GPT-5 will be even remotely close to anything which has even a vague resemblance to AGI?

Fascinating take, had never heard this term. Totally makes sense that intelligence&#x2F;logic without access to peak information will keep spitting out subpar answers.

Am I the only one who had an issue with their example query of &quot;give me all physics PhDs in NYC&quot;? Are they really asking for a listing of all people living in NYC holding a PhD in physics? I can&#x27;t shrug off the feeling that this is the sort of a request that The Terminator might make, just before filtering it further to those with the surname Connor. I for one feel that such queries should be somewhat difficult (at least beyond people who actively want to be found and put their credentials up on linkedin).

clever take on reasoning vs. retrieval. the API is pretty clean, though some searches are still just ok.
