Hmmm...

Of course, AGI would benefit greatly from various radical massively
parallel architectures, but history shows that creating such things is
really expensive and for economy-of-scale reasons they tend to get
obsoleted by advanced in more conventional machines, even if they're
in-principle superior in many ways.

Within the domain of conventional von Neumann computers: AGI requires
a lot of RAM, as rapidly accessible as possible by a lot of
processors.  Pretty simple.

I like Octiga Bay's machines, which are basically a bunch of Opteron
multiprocessor machines hooked together via a special
faster-than-ethernet processor interconnect fabric.  But they're
certainly not the ultimate...
