True, language is a rare dish whose recipe includes intelligence; it
adapts to knowledge and it is a complex space too.
At the very least, some languages are more modern that the contents of
their corpus.

Language is essential to every job that we might use AGI for. There is
no job that you could do without the ability to communicate with
people. Even guide dogs and bomb sniffing dogs have to understand
verbal commands.

It's very easy to show that "AGI should not be designed for NL".
Just ask yourself the following questions:
1. How many species demonstrate impressive leverage of intentional
behaviors? (My answer would be: all of them, though some more
than others)
2. How many species have language (My answer: only one)
3. How biologically different do you think humans are from apes?
(My answer: not much different, the whole human niche is probably
a consequence one adaptive difference: cooperative communication
by scaffolding of joint attention)
I'm with Rodney Brooks on this, the hard part of AGI has nothing
to do with language, it has to do with agents being highly
optimized to control an environment in terms of ecological
information supporting perception/action. Just as uplifting apes
will likely require only minor changes, uplifting animaloid AGI
will likely require only minor changes. Even then we still
haven't explicitly cared about language, we've cared about
cooperation by means of joint attention, which can be made use of
culturally develop language.

, but I don't think you are working on AGI.
No one here does, this is a NLP chatbot crowd. Anyone who
thinks that AGI should be designed for NL data as a primary
input is profoundly confused.

Not from you guys necessarily... :o) But I thought I'd let
you know.
Pitch:

Let's see if it can be done... funny how some hurdles
always seem to appear when you're about to finish
something good. Something about the duality of the
universe I guess.
