For those of you who expect AI progress to slow next year:

I'm having trouble understanding someone's post on the r/singularity subreddit. The title of the post is "For those of you who expect AI progress to be slow next year." The content of the post is a photo of a large building with a roof that has several feet of snow on top of it. At the lower right corner of the roof is a man with a snow shovel who has cleared away a very small portion of the snow. The area that is cleared away is labeled "ChatGPT."

**It looks like the post is trying to make a metaphor about the progress of artificial intelligence (AI). The building with the snowy roof represents the field of AI as a whole, and the man with the shovel represents the progress that has been made in the field. The small area that has been cleared, labeled "ChatGPT," represents a specific AI system or technology.

The metaphor is suggesting that, despite the efforts of researchers and developers, the progress made in the field of AI has been relatively small compared to the vastness of the field as a whole. It is also possible that the post is trying to make a point about the relative importance of a specific AI system or technology, such as ChatGPT, in the broader field of AI.

Without more context, it is difficult to say for certain what the post is trying to communicate. It may be helpful to read the comments on the post or to ask the person who made the post for clarification.**

My impression is that the OP is trying to make the point that AI progress will be fast, but I don't understand his metaphor.

**Based on your interpretation, it sounds like the post may be using irony or sarcasm to make a point about the progress of AI. It is possible that the post is suggesting that, despite appearances, AI progress will actually be fast in the coming year.

If this is the case, the metaphor of the man shoveling snow could be interpreted as representing the hard work and effort that goes into making progress in the field of AI. The small area that has been cleared, labeled "ChatGPT," could represent a specific achievement or breakthrough in the field.

Without more context, it is difficult to say for certain what the post is trying to communicate. It may be helpful to read the comments on the post or to ask the person who made the post for clarification.**
