100% Agree on the pace, I would try not to get fixated on a specific term or try to coin a new one, if you are playful with terminology you could argue AGI is already available, so is machine - human symbiosis when you look at a scale of a whole planet.

What I am interested in is to map the milestones that we expect to happen in 5 years time and see if they do come in 2025 (in half the time)...

I didn't come up with the term, just an fyi

I wasn't specifically talking about you but rather that it's not as important how we call things, what they do and how it changes our life is what importan, it's the industry thing, we have "proto agi" and lots of other terms that don't need to exist, I feel.

Oh I gotcha.

I know what you mean, but I disagree to an extent. There's not a ton of terms for this stuff really. It'd be confusing if there was, but the ones I know of anyway, they're pretty useful and will become much more commonly used.

Transformative AI is exactly just AI that is transformative. It will make huge changes coming up shortly. We need a way to describe AI that's more transformative than Siri, but not at the level of AGI. The stuff that automates white collar workers' jobs.

Proto-AGI is important because there will almost certainly be claims of AGI that aren't full AGI. Needs to be distinguished somehow. It just means basically beta AGI. The arguments for proto-AGI will be coming with some LLM's soon most likely.

But yeah, I feel you.
