Greg Jensen of Bridgewater expressed concern that newer, more powerful AI models are losing the ability to reason in English, which aids human understanding. He noted that this 'constraint' is being removed as it slows down the models. Jensen highlighted that without this capability, it would be impossible to understand what these advanced AIs are doing or why.
“The newest models aren't doing that anymore. They're removing that constraint as it slows down the models to some degree. I mean, how crazy is that? We wouldn't have any idea what it was doing and why, if it hadn't been reasoning in English.”
