FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

AI crosses the AGI threshold

Stanford, CA, United States - April 1, 2023 - 12AM, AoE

*********************************************

Stanford University has released Vicuña, the latest entrant in its cameLLid line of Large Language Models. Vicuña is the progeny of earlier larger, more primitive Ungulates* like LLaMa and Alpaca. It is the inevitable result of running the genetic algorithm that yields frameworks that are better suited to their market niche; survival of the fattest if you will. A spokesman at Stanford University considers this the most advanced Transformer since Optimus Prime.

Not only does Vicuña pass the Turing Test but it can administer it as well, even to itself. Of possible interest to AI researchers it has also passed the Mensa admission exam. the Voight-Kampff test, and "Guess What Number I'm Thinking Of". This begs the question; Does it cheat? No, it runs in half-duplex.

* Ungulates are computer programs so called because they are based on "UNG" ; Unix, not GNU"
