Gary Marcus and Brian Greene discussed at the World Science Festival how scaling neural networks alone does not lead to artificial general intelligence, and that combining scaling with external tool use also falls short of achieving AGI. The talk challenges the assumption that current deep learning approaches can directly lead to human-level artificial intelligence through size and integration improvements alone.
