I saw Melanie’s post and I am intrigued by an easier AGI suite. I would like some experimenting done by individuals like myself snd smaller organizations.
Are you working on (a book detailing) AGI also? It’s a lonely field but I have no doubt there are a sea of malcontent engineers across the world who saw the truth early on and are pushing solo for AGI. It’s going well for me, but I’m not sure whether to take that as “you’re great” or “it’s really that easy”, so was interested to see such a fellow brazen American on HN of all places.
Game on for the million, if so :). If not, apologies for distracting from the good fight for OSS/noncorp devs!
E: it occurred to me on the drive home how easily we (engineers) can fall into competitiveness, even when we’ve all read the thinkpieces about why an AI Race would/will be/is incredibly dangerous. Maybe not “game on”, perhaps… “god I hope it’s impossible but best of luck anyway to both of us”?
