Comatose numbskull de-lurking briefly after being woken up by screaming.

Look at the video. Breathtaking example of the blindness. Doesn't even know
what real AGI is. Thinks 'perception' as defined by computer science is
what humans do. We are conscious. We encounter the world through
consciousness. Not reams of numbers. He doesn't understand the symbol
grounding involved in human intelligence is in consciousness. We encounter
novelty in consciousness! Didn't even mention consciousness or how
consciousness is bypassed. 'Novelty in quantity' (learning extension in
domain X) mistaken for 'novelty in kind' (new knowledge Y).

Prediction: Yet again they will head for what they think is AGI and they
will actually spawn a generalised version of narrow AI that will fail in
the face of certain kinds of deep novelty because the builders fail to
realise that their consciousness is invisibly and unknowingly smuggled into
the pseudo-grounding intrinsic to everything their approach does.

Deep Mind will make useful things. Yes! Great. Bring it on.

But they will not make AGI. Industrial scale, automated narrow-AI is not
AGI. They don't even understand what AGI is. Seen it all before.

So forget any DEFCON anything until there is a non-zero probability of a
robot coming out to the podium and is a functionally verifiable scientist
to everyone there by teaching the audience something nobody else on earth
knows. The 'artificial scientist' is the real AGI benchmark. Sorts it out
every time.
