Total puff piece entirely devoid of any actual detail. Checking the source article, it appears to be utilizing "Enlightenment 2.0", which is some sort of GPT-like model developed by some Chinese universities.

> Next year, she may reach the cognitive level of a 12-year-old

No, no she won't.

> Hua Zhibing will not replace students

That's an assertion that I believe is going to be true for a while yet.


I look forward to her looking at the stuff in use and think "What the fuck is all this bullshit?".

Insert your least favorite piece of technology or paradigm as an example here...


This article would have been enriched with the help of a language model.

There’s nothing to hint at any groundbreaking technology and the claims to the intelligence of a 12 year old are quite bold.


You can easily spot the robot as it is exempt from wearing a face covering.
