AGI - Artificial General Intelligence

Photo of a dining table with a copy of the book *Artificial General Intelligence* by Julian Togelius from the MIT Press Essential Knowledge Series. The book features a sleek black cover with a circular blue graphic and a symbol for pi at its center. Beside it is a red bowl filled with miso soup, a teapot, a small cup of tea, a bottle of soy sauce, hand sanitizer, and a chopstick wrapper.

Because the term AGI is so vague and overhyped, I picked up "Artificial General Intelligence" (2024) by Julian Togelius @togelius.bsky.social ), professor of AI and gaming at NYU, to learn more. It digs into the history of the concept of AGI, and explores the question "what is intelligence anyways?"

Demis Hassabis, Nobel Prize winner in Chemistry: ‘We will need a handful of breakthroughs before we reach artificial general intelligence’ The CEO of Google DeepMind cools expectations about the progress of AGI, which he sees as a lever to accelerate scientific research

Hassabis: Large multimodal models of generative AI are going to be a critical (...) to developing artificial general intelligence, but I don’t think they’re enough (...) we’re going to need a handful of other big breakthroughs before we get to what we call AGI. english.elpais.com/science-tech...
