@GaryMarcus @MelMitchell1 @gcolbourn @TEDTalks @ylecun @demishassabis Yeah. In the meantime though a bunch of people have seen your post claiming it's a mutual agreed upon position between you and him.

@GaryMarcus @gcolbourn @TEDTalks @ylecun @demishassabis Likely there will be more redefinition of "AGI" to make it more plausible. It's already been redefined from "machines attaining general human-level intelligence" to "machines performing most 'cognitive' tasks". Still not clear to me what "most" & "cognitive tasks" means.

The statement involves a series of Twitter interactions among various individuals discussing the predictions and statements regarding the development of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) by Demis Hassabis of DeepMind. The discourse revolves around the timelines and expectations set for AGI development, referencing various sources and statements to clarify or challenge the positions held by the participants. This discussion contributes to the public understanding and dialogue around the technological advancements in AI, making it a part of public discourse.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The discourse is focused on clarifying and debating the timeline for AGI development, which is a significant topic in technology and society. It does not appear to cause harm but rather aims to provide clarity and share information. [+2]
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The participants respect each other's views and engage in a factual discussion based on past statements and predictions, maintaining a respectful tone throughout. [+2]
  3. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The conversation promotes understanding by referencing specific statements and predictions about AGI, helping the audience grasp the complexities and variations in expert opinions. [+2]
  4. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The dialogue is constructive, with participants engaging directly with each other's queries and statements, contributing to a richer discussion rather than devolving into personal attacks. [+2]
  5. Principle 5:
    I will acknowledge and correct my mistakes.
    Participants correct or clarify previous statements and positions, contributing to an accurate and informed discussion. [+2]
  6. Principle 6:
    I will use my influence for the betterment of society.
    The use of a public platform to discuss AGI predictions responsibly informs and educates the audience about significant technological forecasts. [+2]
  7. Principle 7:
    I will uphold the principles of free speech and use my platform responsibly and with integrity.
    The integrity of the discussion is maintained by sticking to factual statements and expert predictions without spreading misinformation or unfounded claims. [+2]
