Admitting when we are wrong should be the default, not a cause for worry. That someone is willing to do so in this age should to be celebrated (or at the very least encouraged).
Gary has directly said he "hopes" he's wrong, so I think he'd be surprised and happy. BTW, his primary criticism of current AI approaches like GPT is he thinks it unlikely simply scaling the size of training data for models like this will yield AGI.
I would be very happy if this was good enough to help me finish the bedtime story I've constructed for my 9 year old. I've clearly lost the plot and she keeps poking holes in it.

Reminds me of the credits from the Futurama soap opera All my circuits.
