I think AGI is a questionable concept. We still don't have a good definition of what intelligence really is, and some people keep moving the goal posts. What we need is AI that fills specific needs we have.
- steveBK123 3y agoIf we simply AGI to be "general purpose AI", then my argument is - maybe the approach of LLMs works fine enough for textual generation, but it is not a path towards "general purpose AI".. and what we are going to have is different approaches for different niche use cases. I'm less convinced there's any unified solution for "general purpose AI" before us here.
