There is a lot of talk about the latest release from OpenAI being “AGI.” And, yet, we still don’t really know what Artificial General Intelligence is. My general belief is when we have an intelligence that safely replace a human in, say, programming without any guidance, then, then we will have AGI.
Or, to put a more fine point on it, I just don’t think we can have true AGI without a body. If an AI mind in an android can both build you a deck, fix your pluming AND babysit your kids then we have AGI.
But to me, there’s an even more crucial element — self-awareness. The real goal of all this work towards AGI should be done towards building self-awareness in AI, more than AGI.
Yet, of course, no one listens to me.
