Could you explain what you mean by this? Not sure if this is even what you're talking about, but I can't imagine how a thermodynamic limit could apply here. Isn't there virtually infinite negentropy we can borrow from nearby to use in the places that matter to us most?

It is hard to quantify, but subjectively (and certainly in terms of public perception), each GPT release has been a massive leap over the previous model. Maybe GPT-2 to GPT-3 was the largest, but im not sure how you're judging that a field is stagnating based on one improvement in a series of revolutionary improvements being slightly more significant than the others. I think most would agree the jump from GPT-3 to GPT-4 was not marginal, and I think i'll be borne right when the jump from GPT-4 to GPT-5 isn't either. There may be a wall, but i dont't see a good argument that we've hit it yet. If GPT-5 releases and is only marginally better that will be evidence in that direction, but i'm pretty confident that won't happen.

Your analogy is odd because you're just posing a situation that is analgous to what the situation would look like if you turned out to be right. From the rate of improvement recently, i'd say we're more at the first flight test stage. Yes, of course the jump from a vehicle that can't fly to one that can is in some sense a 'bigger leap' than others in the development cycle, but we still eventually got to the moon.
