Some of our very best friends (including Dan Hendrycks, Max Tegmark, Jaan Tallinn, and Yoshua Bengio) just uploaded to arxiv a preprint that attempts to define the term “artificial general intelligence”.
Turns out the paper was at least partly written by an LLM, because it cites hallucinated papers. In response, Hendrycks tries to pull a fast one, pretending that it’s Google Docs’ fault.
(Gary Marcus is also a coauthor on this paper for some reason.)

Every time I see Dan doing some dumb shit publicity stunt
Didn’t OpenAI and Microsoft already come to an agreement like a year ago that AGI means when OpenAI makes a gorillion dollars, or something like that? I remember some leaked docs contained something to that effect.
But Sam can build the AGI! Sort of — OpenAI and Microsoft recently redefined “artificial general intelligence” as OpenAI making $100 billion profit. Yes, really.
What I like about this definition is that the lint in my navel is about 15% closer to AGI than OpenAI, having produced zero dollars of profit for them.

@blakestacey @sneerclub So, never. got it.
I’m only surprised that they’re so goddamned lazy.
