I don't think we are approaching limits, if you take off the English-centric glasses. You can query LLMs about pretty basic questions about Polish language or literature and it's gonna either bullshit or say it doesn't know the answer.

Example:

    w której gwarze jest słowo ekspres i co znaczy?

    Słowo "ekspres" występuje w gwarze śląskiej i oznacza tam ekspres do kawy. Jest to skrót od nazwy "ekspres do kawy", czyli urządzenia służącego do szybkiego przygotowania kawy.
The correct answer is that "ekspres" is a zipper in Łódź dialect.


What this means is just that Polish support (and probably most other languages besides English) in the models is behind SOTA. We can gradually get those languages closer to SOTA, but that doesn't bring us closer to AGI.


That's just same same but different, not a step change towards significant cognitive ability.


Tbf, you can ask it basic questions in English and it will also bullshit you.
