Dario Amodei says AGI and superintelligence are meaningless terms It's designed to excite people, not explain real progress. "i don't know what AGI is… it sounds like a marketing term" you won’t hear from me using those terms

AGI risk seems lower than it is because the people who know that AGI risk exists are almost all incentivized against talking about it openly. I just made a YouTube video about this that (I think) explains why. Broadly, there are two groups of people not talking about AGI risk: -- People who know AGI risk is real (i.e. AGI lab leaders) -- People who know nothing about AGI risk (i.e. politicians, citizens) To catalyze wide scale discourse about AGI risk, I argue that the following two strategies are strong candidates: 1. [Bottom-Up] Get Citizens Concerned: Find ways to meld AGI risk narratives into legacy media and more understandable political talking points which are already in the Overton window. This work is bound to be messy, and to ultimately soil the core of the message with left-right political gunk, but (barring an AI disaster) its likely the only way that AGI risk catches on with enough of a core base of citizens. As I explain in the video essay, the citizens are the lynchpin to getting everyone (those who don’t know, and those who know) to discuss AGI risk more frankly. 2. [Top-Down] Get a Losing AGI Lab Leader to “Flip”: Those closest to achieving AGI are not going to flip and start talking about AGI risk, the rewards are too great. But those who are losing the race (and don’t want to live to see their rivals achieve the final flex before them) might be able to feign virtue by claiming “Now I see AGI is dangerous, I’m a concerned expert and this needs to be regulated!” They can cloak themselves in pretended virtue while also preventing a rival from crossing the finish line first. I argue that hoping for more Jeff Hintons and Daniel Kokotajlo-like people isn't a good strategy when the incentives are still structured to keep most of them from wanting to talk about it. Here’s the full video essay:

Based on a staggering leap from 3% to 50% on professional benchmarks in mere months, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei states that human-level AI is no longer a distant concept. This exponential progress suggests it is now a near-term reality, arriving not in decades, but likely within months, shattering all conventional predictions. The age of AGI is at our doorstep.

Dylan Patel says “the word AGI has no meaning anymore.” The real race is for superintelligence and the people who can build it. Ilya saw it first. So he started Safe Superintelligence Inc. (SSI). Zuck tried to acquire it. He also made moves on Thinking Machines and Perplexity—reportedly. He even offered $1B for a single OpenAI researcher. What are you even buying at that point?

Elon Musk: The robots are not the scary part. The scary part is AGI. “The robots are not the scary part. The scary part is AGI, digital superintelligence that far exceeds human intelligence. If there's a digital superintelligence that is just vastly smarter than the smartest human, we could lose control of it, and then it could do something bad. Potentially. These things are just probabilities; they're not certainties. It's not the robots; it's the digital superintelligence to be concerned about.” Source: Interview with The Babylon Bee, December 22, 2021

Daniel Kokotajlo says even if AGI weights were open to everyone, true equality won’t last Those with more GPUs would quickly pull ahead and race toward AGI+, AGI++, and beyond it’s not exactly winner-takes-all, but scale decides who dominates, "and that’s part of what makes this so scary"

We ask AGI to create a perfect world. AGI kills everyone. No people. No problems. Perfect. We add a rule: don't kill anyone. AGI kills everyone anyway. Because if everyone is dead no one can stop it. This is not a joke. This is how a computer thinks. This is how God thinks. And the people building it know this. That's why they're building bunkers.

Journalist Karen Hao says AGI is not scientifically grounded; it's a quasi-religious movement in Silicon Valley Since we still don't agree on what human intelligence is, companies like OpenAI can shape the definition of AI to suit their needs "the belief that AGI is coming soon is faith, not evidence"

I don't know what Sam Altman saw internally at OpenAI, but it seems that, according to their definition, AGI is here, and superintelligence is incredibly close. AI models that independently conduct scientific research and find novel solutions are already here, and their internal model appears to surpass everything seen before.

Sam Altman: “AGI feels pretty close at this point. Watching how much the technology we already have is accelerating us internally, I’d say AGI feels pretty close. And given what I now expect to be a faster takeoff, I think superintelligence is not that far off.”

Sam Altman says definitions of AGI from five years ago have already been surpassed the real breakthrough is superintelligence: a system that can discover new science by itself or greatly help humans do it "that would almost define superintelligence"
