I read an article recently interviewing some MIT dude. Can't find the link, but essentially AGI now is like Google and social media 20 years ago. In 20-25 years from now it is going to dominate our lives the same our current technology does. The majority of current jobs will eventually become obsolete. Even Elon Musk, who loves technological progress has shown concern for where it is heading. The freakiest part is the neuro link chip implants that will turn people into super processors.

It's dangerous to talk too much about it. Especially on this board.

Given that many "news" sites already use rudimentary AI to write "news" stories, I'd say its a big deal already. What you know and understand about the world is already the product of an algorithm controlled by megacorp USA.

Jobs will change.

As long as government doesn't meddle, the market will take care of it.

The level of brute force inundation it takes to make someone believe this is simply unimaginable.

In the future, comments like this will be AI driven, designed to assuage fears about machine algorithms dominating the public consciousness.

There will be no "off the grid" in an AI dominated world.

Hey Burger, WHY CAN'T YOU SAY WHAT AGI IS IN THE ORIGINAL POST??????? They abbreviate all you want afterwards. Why make people have to google search stuff for no reason?

I'm still waiting for the flying cars that were predicted in the 30s and 40s.

We can't even get autocorrect spelling right. We're a long way from sentience.
