Yeah, I'm doing something that's basically AGI. The motivation is largely as many futurists hold, i.e.: > I want to cure all diseases, aging, etc.; but, that's too much research for humans to do quickly enough! We better make artificially intelligent thinkers to do it. I don't think that the term "artificial general intelligence (AGI)" is optimal; lately, I've been calling it an "intentional system". The conceptual distinction is the focus on the dynamics of intent, whereas intelligence is a slightly-off focus as intelligence is how intention is effected rather than precisely intention itself.
