A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Can someone explain to me what AGI means in this context? I thought it was something that Joe Rogan keeps peddling to my parents.
A machine made in the likeness of a human mind to quote a popular thing. Basically something that can think and reason in the same ways that we can and self improve.
To give you an actual answer, it means "artificial general intelligence"
Ironic since Joe Rogan isn't an example of General Intelligence, he's a very narrow intelligence. Limited only to stiring up trouble. But he couldn't think his way out of an unlocked room.
It's a sci-fi term. Up there with "robots will become sentient and take over the world." It means the first half, in fact.
Maybe instead of giving in to your prejudices, (like you think only your parents do), why ... don't you look it up?
What prejudices do you think I have, I just want to know what AGI stands for and what it means with AI and I want someone who isn't Wikipedia to explain it to me? Is that so much to ask?
Oh I thought it was a rant about the word usage, my bad. AGI means artifical general intelligence.
Current AI works by predicting from data. We give last years hurricane data and it predicts hurricane forecast for this year.
Without getting into technical, this is how chatbots work too. We give a sentence and it predicts what first result on google or reply on whatsapp would look like.
AGI on the other hand is "sentience" where it does actually think for itself. You give robot body to an AGI with no data on cooking and it will figure out how to through messing around and thinking.
Techbros think if AI just figures out how to have a conversation in its head it will start to think and achieve AGI state where it can replace workers fully.
Problem is that chatbots just give illusion of sentience. The website is designed to look like messages but in reality it is not talking with any thoughts.
That word doesn't mean, what you think it means.
It means you are exactly like the people you purport to hate.
Another way to express that is you're an idiot who has stumbled across the English language, found it confusing, and is now just pressing random buttons.
Please disassociate yourself with this comment thread, the value you are providing it can be negatively expressed.
I would call you waste of oxygen, but really it's a waste of electrons to store your invalid and totally irrelevant opinion, because it is of course, it's the opinion of a moron.
Not to cause any offence or anything. I would hate to do that.
