I’m reading comments and posts on technology subs and people still think AGI is 70+ years away or not even possible. I could kind of understand people being skeptical two years ago but it should not happen today. We are seeing new models released every week that can create audio, video, pictures, understand text, and much more.
The amount of research papers on AI and parameters in AI models are exploding at a much faster rate than other technology. It also seems like there are a ton of unexpected and emergent behaviour as these models become more powerful. They are literally slowly gaining intelligence every month. I would not be surprised if we reached the AGI level by 2035 or earlier at this rate.
It’s not getting as much attention as it should considering it will render most concepts like careers and retirement completely useless. We won’t know if it will be in a good way or bad way but things like that will definitely be in the past.
