Today’s AI systems have impressive capabilities and the rapid pace of innovation suggests we’re now approaching artificial general intelligence (AGI), a system that exhibits all the cognitive capabilities of the human brain.

Exactly how many cognitive capabilities are needed before it becomes a problem?
maybe if AI was progressing linearly we wouldn't be close, but if it's progressing exponentially then all bets are off
Until an LLM can sustain a conversation with me for more than 20 to 30 minutes without becoming incoherent I’m just not even entertaining any idea that we have reached AGI.

For a guy who spent his life imagining and realising dreams in video games and cognitive abilities in artificial neural networks, it has to be very soul destroying for Demis to spend his time doing something as frivolous as this.
> Not sure we are anywhere close to all the cognitive capabilities of the human brain...
In which capabilities are AI not already close to or beyond that of a human brain?
