Comment on AI is the digital equivalent of an atom bomb. You can refuse it but you can't prevent others from using it... and there may be dire consequences if only the worst people have it.

  I don’t think AGI is fake, conceptually. Humans are just meat-based computers. Eventually we will build something of comparable power and efficiency.

  However, LLMs don’t seem like a viable path to AGI imo.

    We disagree about genies being real (they are not) so don’t worry about expressing or defending your points further.

      Nobody’s saying AGI is here right now - it’s a concept, like worrying about an asteroid wiping us out before it actually shows up. Dismissing it as “fake” just ignores the trajectory we’re on with AI development. If we wait until it’s real to start thinking about risks, it might be too late.
