Abstract: Technology for creating AGI is widely available. There are no gaps in our knowledge of how to build it, and philosophical and psychological understanding of the intelligence phenomenon offer several pathways to its implementation, some of which are provided and explained here. As a technology, AGI shares an educational bottleneck with natural (human) intelligence, which renders the potential intelligence explosion costly, pushing the ROI of such an enterprise behind other available investment opportunities, including ANI. AGI is here, but with no obvious business advantage at this time.
The cornerstone of this article is based on Laplace’s principle that the weight of evidence for an extraordinary claim must be proportional to its strangeness. As... (read 4895 more words →)
I understand the part about turning money into results. Unfortunately, I do not see any confusion here. One of the well-funded teams succeeded in creating AGI. I state it clearly. I might be wrong, but I was not so far.
Now, there is a gap in general knowledge on how to achieve AGI. Only someone knows how (yes, it is only me who says that, granted). But it is possible. And the gap is dangerous.
We have hundreds of thousands highly educated, skilled engineers available on the market very now. Some of them are as clever and educated as the members of the successful AGI team. Some maybe more so. Hire them, give them... (read more)
