I didn't know serious technical people were taking the AGI thing seriously. I figured it was just an "aim for the stars" goal where you try to get a bunch of smart people and capital invested into an idea, and everyone would still be happy if we got 25% of the way there.
If our markets weren’t corrupt, everyone in the AI space would be bankrupt by now, and we could all wander down to the OpenAI fire sale and buy nice servers for pennies on the dollar.
I'd take this more seriously if I didn't hear the same thing every other time there was a spike in VC investment. The last 5 times were the next dot com booms too.
