The Code For AGI will be Simple
The code for artificial general intelligence (AGI) is likely to be tens of thousands of lines, suggesting that a single individual could potentially write it, in contrast to the complexity of creating a new web browser. Key insights necessary for AGI may be simple, possibly fewer than six fundamental insights that can be quickly conceptualized. With advancements in AI and machine learning, combined with scalable GPUs and available data, there's potential for creating systems that emulate human-like behaviors and functionalities. The optimism about AGI's emergence is increasing, with a belief that by 2030, there could be signs of AGI, supported by existing literature that may already contain crucial ideas for its development.⠀
--- QUOTE --- “My bet is that there's less than six key insights that need to be made. Each one of them can probably be written on the back of an envelope.”
