In her statements, Iryna has highlighted the limits of current large language models in achieving human-like reasoning and emphasized the importance of systematic generalization, introspective consistency and interdisciplinary collaboration for future progress. While LLMs cannot think for us, they can definitely help us to think better.

She addressed:

• The mixed reception of GPT-5 despite benchmark successes
• How benchmarks can guide model selection — and their limits in real-world use
• The pace of development across different AI domains, from text to video generation
• Why artificial general intelligence (AGI) is still a distant goal
• The importance of keeping AI as a tool to augment human creativity and problem-solving
