I would say so. Most AGI work so far has been pursued by academics with a lack of software engineering best practices. Codebases get bloated and hard to understand. Ramp-up time measured in years. This hinders experimentation, which you have to optimize for with projects like this. I would suspect Carmack understands this, and also understands what resources to consult, and how to spot the bullshit artists in the field. I'd work for him in a heartbeat.
