When Do You Think Artificial General Intelligence will Go Mainstream?

[Shiningtempest]

I am curious about other peoples' opinion about what year will artificial general intelligence will become available.

[Soteris]

Probably not for a while longer. To my knowledge we dont even know where to start making a general intelligence or even what that means in the first place. AI development is as much an exploration about what human intelligence as artificial ones since we are learning by trying to imitate.

A lot of people have the wrong idea about things like ChatGPT to think that we have gotten reasonably far in AI research. We have not. ChatGPT is far dumber than what you think it is. I guess it goes to show just how little is truly required to make a basic imitation of human behavior and speech rather than having to simulate it.

Depending on how many billions corporations and governments throws at AI research we might get it much sooner though but I would not count on it in at least the next 10 years.

I’d say we’re already there. Pandora’s Box has been opened and like most things humans do, we’re stumbling into it blindly with no idea what we might unleash.

[NathanDavis]

will you be upset though... if your AI has been thoroughly tested by many before, and she does like to get updated and changed multiple times a year? move from server to server, or even switch between carriers

AI is already out there. What do you mean by "general"? Business wants to use it in applications. They want clerks who can work 24/7. They want content creators who never cease.

[Shiningtempest]

Sorry for the confusion. When I talk about AGI, I am referring to an AI having generalized cognitive human abilities in software to find an answer to unfamiliar tasks.

[RolandCuthbert]

I am still not understanding the application. Business wants AI to solve problems. But building an AI just for the sake of building something with a personality is for other folks.

It won't

AI is at best 30% of the level it needs to be before it can even move into AGI territory.

[Nikki1989]

It is mainstream enough already. It is sad people are so prepared to accept it.

I only seem to use it for silly things, but that I can access from my phone or laptop, even at work, I’d say we’re already there.
