I feel like this is an unanswerable question but I'll just put it out there anyway if we can answer this I think it'll be worth a lot which is can we separate intelligence from knowledge that's a very deep question actually and uh to have a little history background I think U I think that's really the key s is at the beginning of AI if you think about Noel and Simon and all those symbolic AI people right basically they're trying to create intelligence by writing down all the knowledge for example they write like a checker yeah or write a checker program basically how you will solve the Checker you write down all the knowledge and then Implement that and I think the whole thesis of symbolic AI is we should just be able to write down all the knowledge and that just creates intelligence

Original Description

Shunyu Yao of OpenAI on whether or not AI models can be smart without knowing much, or knowledge itself is what makes them smart.
