Currently I believe AI is ideology not technology. Success is solely achieved by declaration. I am not sure when I read what I read to make me subscribe to that idea. Might have been in the last year. Probably was a bit longer ago. [Caveat] I have not been terribly excited about AI since expert systems but A* is pretty useful. [Clarification] I think AGI is analogous to transmutation of lead into gold. The literal goal is incompatible with reality, but it is the right problem to work on because the exhaust fumes are useful.
