I think this is more wishful thinking and anchoring than something to be taken seriously. Which is fine. It's okay to dream. But AGI requires so many things that it's hard to list them all, but I will try:

  • Learning how to learn
  • Independent data acquisition
  • Common sense. This is hard to define. It could mean a set of rules. It could mean a database of facts.
  • Embodied AI
  • Something that resembles brain plasticity. Brains can create synapses. Dendrites can branch.
  • Wake sleep cycles. AI will be gathering data or its of no use to us. I mean, if we have to acquire and clean data for it, when will we get to enjoy VR? So AI will acquire data and then process it when the opportunity presents itself.

None of these items seem trivial to me. I don't see how they can all be done by 2024.
