Also I think that CS people's understand of neurons are horribly underestimated. The idea that there are bits 'in' neurons is a misconception. They each neuron is a multi-cellular entity with variate modes of interaction and activation.
So these napkin estimates comparing brainpower what server farms can do doesn't inform us at all about how that gets us closer to AGI.
- abledon 7y agoI always wonder how they think AGI is close when neuroscience is still scratching in the dark with brain scans, and we don’t know how digestion works 100% nor how to build a single cell in a lab then and have it skip millions of years in evolution to make a baby in 9 months. The AGI will definitely be different in structure than a human brain. Will it have a microbiome to influence its emotions and feelings?
