yes. we probably have different definitions for AGI. For me artificial means that it’s facilitated and/or accelerated by humans. You can get to the point where there are 0 biological parts and my earlier point is that there would probably be multiple iterations before this would be a possibility. If I understand you correctly you want to make this jump to “hardware” directly. Given enough time I would not dismiss any of these approaches although IMHO the latter is less likely to happen. also, augmenting a human brain for what I’m describing does not mean that each human would get their brain augmented. It’s very possible that only a subset of humans would “evolve” this way and we would create a different subspecies. I’m not going to go into the ethics of the approach or the possibility that current humans will not like/allow this, although I think that the technology part would not be enough to make it happen.
