It’s easier to call it AGI to “normies” rather than what it will probably be IRL which is many thousands of niche disruptions via the specific innovations of recent (LLM/deep learning/GPU+AI tooling+education investments)… that we will as usual have a difficult time predicting what it looks like even a decade from now.
Stuff like programming assistance, new markets driven by GPT style APIs, and the mountain of productivity gains will help subsidize and accelerate the next tranche of investment until we reach the next R&D milestone that will again totally “revolutionize” the world and lead to mass employment for the 10th time this century.
I look forward to having this conversation on HN again in 5-10yrs as the world slowly gets better at a slightly faster (yet less news worthy) rate.
