We do have something close to AGI, namely Alexa, Google, and Siri. The one thing they have in common is they were developed by companies with trillion dollar market caps.
I've been on this list since before these products existed. Has anyone here contributed to their development? Has anyone studied how they work? Did anyone even see them coming? You can dismiss them because they don't do X, or are not conscious, or whatever. But these products are useful and continuously improving. Whatever you define as AGI, they are certainly going to reach it before you do. Meanwhile, what have you done? Anyone can have an idea for AGI that is 8 orders of magnitude cheaper because that's your budget. OK, prove it. You have seen my estimates for the hardware, software, and training costs for AGI. We know the algorithms for vision, language, and robotics. The rest is engineering. And yeah, I'm old enough to know how to use vi, although I prefer notepad. ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/T7c7052974ce450f1-M8758c2bfe6d3fe218577a26d Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
