alt Hacker NewsWhat would convince you that it is AGI?
I always here things like "oh it's useful but dumb on some things", but it's just vague.
What is the test? What is a question that it fails at compared to humans? And no, you can't just say "find me the cure for cancer", but I believe there is probably enough intelligence in the weights that there is likely a cure in there with enough compute and the right questions.

When it can replace a white collar remote worker without humans team realizing they work with the machine. And no, Agents are not like this whatever initial prompt and set of skills you give them. They still won't progress, learn and apply that knowledge like a human.
I can’t predict how a novel intelligence could prove to me that it is intelligent. A novel intelligence would have to work out how to do that for itself

Human intelligence does not consist of answering questions.
And every day I have to say "No, you stupid clanker ...", so if this is "general intelligence", it's the intelligence of an idiot savant who is good at calculations but sucks at most other forms of intelligence.
i think we'll know agi when we see it, but we can't really predict what that will look like
The fact that you need to ask "the right questions" is why it's not AGI. A general intelligence should be able to ask of its own volition the interesting questions required to advance its goals.
