I'm hoping the current crop of ML/AI yields sufficiently commercially viable blindsight behavior [1] to fund continuing research into AGI. Generative LLM seems sufficiently sophisticated to write ad copy and general political speech of all kinds, so if that's the direction we go I can see all kinds of interesting possible implications. I'd like to see baking in positive optimism and collaboration into the DNA of solutions delivered by such blindsight systems.
