A lot of sneakiness is happening when it comes to declaring or predicting AI, AGI, and ASI. Sadly, the tricksters are getting away with it. Here's the insider scoop.
In today’s column, I examine the emerging attempts to surreptitiously blur the distinctions between contemporary AI and the vaunted but not-yet-attained artificial general intelligence . As if that’s not enough, there is also a concerted effort to further overstretch into proclaiming the imminent realization of artificial superintelligence .
Here’s what I mean. Would you be willing to say that a dog or a cat exhibits intelligent behavior? I think we can generally and collegially agree that yes, it is fair to say that a dog or a cat does things sometimes that we would declare as being intelligent. Not all the time, but certainly some of the time.
Voila, a new piece of terminology evolved and gained traction, namely the moniker of artificial general intelligence and the associated acronym of AGI. The beauty was that AI researchers could say that their more advanced AI was closer to AGI and not mired in the less-stellar conventional AI.“AGI or artificial general intelligence is an AI system that exhibits intelligent behavior of both a narrow and general manner on par with that of humans, in all respects.
Be wary and highly skeptical about any of the spewing forth claims about AI, AGI, and ASI. It is murky. It might be underhanded.Some final comments before I conclude this discussion.
