"Artificial General Intelligence" Will Be "Better Than Humans," According to AI Experts🧐
This year at the World Economic Forum's annual conference in Davos, senior executives from prominent AI companies such as OpenAI, Google DeepMind, and Cohere convened to deliberate on the near-term arrival of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).
AI will be "better than humans at pretty much whatever humans can do," according to one CEO.

Executives from some of the top AI research facilities in the world, according to CNBC, anticipate the arrival of AI in the near future that is at least as intelligent as humans. cnbc.com/2024/01/23/dav…
According to Breitbart, there is excitement and worry in the AI field about this type of AI that is on par with or even more advanced than human intelligence.
During the World Economic Forum discussion, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman hinted that artificial intelligence (AGI) would exist in the "reasonably close-ish future."
Altman, however, brushed down concerns that artificial intelligence will fundamentally alter the course of history, saying, "It will change the world much less than we all think, and it will change jobs much less than we all think."
Previously, Altman had said, "I think people should be happy that we are a little bit scared of this," expressing concerns about AI being used for hacks and disinformation.
The CEO and co-founder of Cohere, Aidan Gomez, concurred with Altman that artificial intelligence will arrive soon, but he pointed out that the phrase is imprecise. AGI is a phrase that is quite ill-defined, to start.
If we simply refer to it as "better than humans at pretty much whatever humans can do," then I agree that systems that can accomplish that will likely be available pretty soon.
Gomez continued, noting that although corporate adoption may take decades, Cohere is concentrated on improving the adaptability and efficiency of these systems.
Lila Ibrahim, the DeepMind chief operations officer at Google, emphasized the ambiguity surrounding the definition and timing of AGI. "No one knows, in reality," she said. "In the industry and within the organization, there is a debate among AI experts who have been doing this for a long time."
"We're already seeing areas where AI can unlock our understanding... where humans haven't been able to make that kind of progress," she went on. That is, AI working alongside humans or as a tool.breitbart.com/tech/2024/01/2…
