[ExI] Ben Goertzel on Large Language Models

[Gordon Swobe]

"To be clear -- we have enough of a theory of AGI already that it SHOULD
[be] clear nothing with the sort of architecture that GPT-n systems have
could really achieve HLAGI.  But the abstract theory of AGI has not been
fleshed out and articulated clearly enough in the HLAGI context. We need to
articulate the intersection of abstract AGI theory with everyday human life
and human-world practical tasks with sufficient clarity that only a tiny
minority of AI experts will be confused enough to answer a question like
this with YES ..."
