A Reddit user asks what the next major scaling era for LLMs might be, arguing that the field has already gone through:
- Bigger model, better results
- Chain-of-thought
- Agents
They suggest both chain-of-thought and agents emerged gradually before becoming mainstream, and ask what new dimension is now bubbling up as the next big shift in capability scaling.
