I’m not an AGI fanboy. I agree that the current line of inquiry (ie deep learning) won’t get us there. I think neurosymbolic reasoning is needed. That work is still nascent, and worse, we don’t have great ways to connect our current paradigm to it.

Now thinking about it, is there any need for an AGI model? Is this a classic case of a (magic) solution looking for a problem?

There are for sure use cases for inference models in generalized (or rather ill-understood; or even highly dynamic) non-linear systems, and deep learning models kind of ace at that—given enough training data and a lot of computational power. However I’m not really sure what we will use AGI for.
