A different point of view on AGI is that we humans do not achieve AGI. Our brains aren’t capable of it. We get close enough to trick the other humans we compete against for resources. How would we prove that’s not true? Something like IQ tests? We don’t have good tests or benchmarks or tooling for this in ourselves, let alone the reproduction in machines. No one knows definitively what AGI actually is so, depending on where you set that bar, we might already be there.
- rswail 2y ago> No one knows definitively what AGI actually is The current "leaders" in this field are defining it to be whatever they think they can achieve by adding compute. I know I have "general intelligence", but can I prove it to you (or anyone else)? Not really, but in my solipsistic world, I don't have to. Maybe we should set some definitions before trying to "get there" when we don't where "there" is.
