Does AGI implies the technological singularity and if not, why not?
- staticassertion 4y agoa) We don't really know what AGI implies b) Even if we say "a human being level of intelligence, whatever that means", the answer is still a maybe. For a singularity you need a system that can improve its ability to improve its abilities, which may require more than general intelligence, and will probably require other capabilities.
- POiNTx 4y agoIt does once you have a human level AGI, it should be trivial to scale it up to a superhuman level.
- Ekaros 4y agoI'm wondering if scaling up is trivial. Ofc, it depends on how much computational resources a working AGI needs. And if at that point they are capable of optimizing themselves further. Or optimizing production of more resources. Still, scaling up might not be simple if we look at all the human resources currently poured in software and hardware.
- dinosaurdynasty 4y agoMost models take orders of magnitude more compute to train than to run. So you could pretty easily duplicate the result a couple order of magnitude times.
- randartie 4y agoYou can task the human-level AGI to optimize itself. You can create an army of copies of itself to work towards that. It's self fulfilling.
- rightbyte 4y agoAssuming it does not get stuck at some local maximum.
