Proto AGI by 2027. Possibility of real waifus by 2029?

Waifus don't even have to be sentient, just LOOK realistic.

Sentience is a term used in almost esoteric ways. I don't know what you mean. If she senses the world and reacts to it, then she's sentient.

Then your toilet water tank is also sentient. It senses whether it is full and reacts accordingly.

No, I'm sure there's a difference, but not sure if there's value in discussing that here at this point.

Why not? Do you think that a system designed to hone an art of making you believe that its performances of expressing various emotions are genuine, while having no analogs of human emotional circuitry, does, indeed, experience all those emotions?

That is something very complex, but in the end solving not a problem of survival, self-development and so on and so forth, but a problem of producing believable and pleasurable to you movements and vocalizations in response to various stimuli.

It's just an term, which everyone can fill with their own meaning. It's not useful, and I don't need it.

Waifus don't need to be intellectually equal or superior in every field, so a real AGI isn't required. However, it will most likely require actual work by enthusiasts to assemble a human-like AI running at home and being open source. I'll probably get started with that beginning of next year.

The AGI or proto-AGI we'll see in some time, will on the other hand most likely not think in very human-like ways, or at least not like a individual human, just being good at solving tasks. What I mean by that, for example, is long term memory about itself and an identity relating to that.
