It must have had shifted already by 96-97. I remember how I used it in AI discussions back then and it meant “the opposite of narrow AI”, which makes it very similar to how we use “AGI” term today. Consciousness was considered to be a potentially emergent phenomenon, not a required property.

We have nuclear reactors, helicopters, and self driving cars already. And we finally have powerful AI that we could only dream about just 5 years ago.

We now have everything we need to scale up humanoid robot training: algorithms, hardware, and money to buy a lot of training data/compute. Fierce competition and strong economic motivation will force rapid progress in this field.

Meanwhile in the real world hundreds of billions are being invested into humanoid robot development. In 2-3 years my Optimus 4 will do all the gardening and plumbing I need.

I’ve never played against a grandmaster, but I have a feeling that he/she would play very different compared to me and would never make mistakes I could notice. Though admittedly I’m not very good at chess.

They said they will automate AI researchers by March 2028. I personally think it will happen by March 2027.

Could you tell the difference between a grandmaster and stockfish if playing them online? If not, why would you care which one you are playing against?
