I don't know what this is about, will someone explain?
That's Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI. AGI is Artificial General Intelligence that would be as, or more, intelligent than humans, and could, generally, do any cognitive task a human could. Sam Altman was (is?) seeking trillions of dollars in AI investment in pursuit of AGI. Collectively, the world's companies have already invested hundreds of billion of dollars in AI datacenters.
Thank you.
to add a little bit, most computer scientists don't think AGI will be achieved by an LLM. there are many other types of AI that lends themselves more to AGI, but that's not where the money is at currently so they just get buried. I actually just took a AGI class with a professor working on his own AGI system, if you're curious you can check it out here to get an idea of what I mean. https://cis.temple.edu/~pwang/NARS-Intro.html
