>Interestingly enough, OpenAI seems to go all in on GenAI, or at least spend a significant part of its resources on it. Generating videos seems like a cool feature, and perhaps commercially viable at some point, but it doesn't seem to bring them closer to AGI. Not sure if that's shiny object syndrome, pressure from Microsoft, surfing the wave, or a big masterplan I'm not seeing.
Building AGI will be extremely expensive. They need ways to stay alive and fund it. I would compare it to Tesla building the Roadster to fund S, and S revenue to fund the next car, etc.

- ben_w 3y agoWe aren't sure we know how to do it at all yet[0], so there's going to be a lot of research going from here to there. Also, we don't know how to do it safely, which they also care about, and also takes a lot of research as quite a lot of us don't even agree on the question. All that research is going to be expensive. [0] It's long been possible to make an AI which can learn any function, but all the current ones need too much training data, and we don't know if we can reach economic usefulness in all human domains with the currently existing data even if we ignore that so many data holders responded to ChatGPT and Midjourney/Stable Diffusion by locking away all their data.
