This takes embodiment (which I suspect is essential) to a place that feels weird to me. When I say that I suspect embodiment is essential to AGI, I mean that I think a lot of people are basically presuming mind-body dualism. I mean that the GIs we know about have neural networks that extend out into their large physical bodies, and that there's a bit of hubris bound up in assuming that a neural network simulated on a cpu and connected to a camera can produce the same results as wetware with a whole nest of nerves connected to a meat-camera.
