The ball is "rolling" in the sense that there are thousands of very smart, passionate people with billions of dollars of funding who are working on this problem full time. The ball is rolling more now than it ever has been in history. If AGI is not somehow fundamentally impossible, I believe we're on well on track to cracking it extremely soon. The amount of brain-hours being poured into the problem is absurd.
