AGI, AI

These pieces provide insight into the mind of AI on progression towards AGI and what will be required.It’s a different way to assemble business requirements and reflects the incongruity, ambiguity and inconsistencies of the human mind; all of which are needed for advances beyond the raw fact based logic of AI. I give you Napoleon Buzzsnot.

Crypto remains a solution in search of a problem – Krugman

Colin Henderson

By Paul Krugman Opinion Columnist NYT “Then there’s cryptocurrency, which isn’t quite like other parts of the technology sector. Whatever you think of Musk, Tesla produces a real product with real uses; so, in a different way, does PayPal, the initial source of Thiel’s vast wealth. Crypto, by contrast, remains a solution in search of a problem. But a couple of months ago, there was Bernie Moreno, the pro-crypto Republican candidate for Ohio’s other Senate seat, at a bitcoin convention asking, “Are you sick of these politicians who say bitcoin is for drug dealing and money laundering?” Actually, no: I’m sick of … Continue reading Crypto remains a solution in search of a problem – Krugman

The Intelligence Age – Sam Altman

Colin Henderson

Sam Altman is solidifying his position as a leader in AI and the shift towards to AGI, and ASI (Superintelligence). I must admit I have not seen tangible staps towards AGI indicated from Altman (more on that here coming at Bankwatch) but he is setting the tone and exemplifying the power in that belief which I share and appreciate, given the mantra of this blog. My belief is that AI is stuck in single use siloed basic automation of current processes. The missing and next level will see collaboration between domains of digitisation, physcology, science, expontelly larger language models, and … Continue reading The Intelligence Age – Sam Altman

Productivity growth levels comparable to those seen during the Industrial Revolution through AGI development will likely require extensive interdisciplinary collaboration

Colin Henderson

Here are some key areas of collaboration that seem necessary, with speculative examples drawing parallels to Industrial Revolution innovations: Speculating further, we might see the emergence of entirely new interdisciplinary fields, such as “AGI-Human Symbiosis Studies” or “Cognitive Economics,” which could drive innovations we can hardly imagine today. The key to achieving Industrial Revolution-level productivity growth will likely lie in fostering a collaborative ecosystem where these diverse disciplines can cross-pollinate ideas and rapidly translate theoretical breakthroughs into practical applications.
