I just don't think they've come up with a definition of what AGI even is.
Like, ChatGPT can do a lot, but it has no preferences, no desires, no memories, no feelings, no creativity. It's a text output calculated based on a text input combined with other text inputs. It's an extremely impressive piece of technology. But that is not a mind, that is not a consciousness.
What even is AGI, really? I've been arguing with various people that we're nowhere near it, but like we don't even have an agreed-upon definition of what it is, so how can we really argue?

- lucubratory 3y agoI used to feel the same way, but I got convinced that it's useful. Going from "planned" to "operational" in a way that conveys the continuity of the process doesn't have a good adverb and operationalising fits the bill.
- CamperBob2 3y ago"Realizing" works pretty well. Strunk & White would've shit a pair of bricks over that. I shudder to think how "Operationalizing" would've gone over.
