Matt: AGI spans just about every field of science, from ethics to quantum mechanics, child development to algorithmic information theory, genetics to economics.
Just so. And every field of the arts. And history. And philosophy. And technology. Including social technology. And organizational technology. And personal technology. And the physical technologies of sport, dance, sex etc. The whole of culture and the world.
No, nobody can be a superDa Vinci knowing everything and solving every problem. But actually every AGI-er will have personal experience of solving problems in many different domains as well as their professional ones. And they should, I suggest, be able to use and integrate that experience into AGI. They should be able to metacognitively relate, say, the problem of tidying and organizing a room, to the problem of organizing an argument in an essay, to the problem of creating an AGI organization, to the problem of organizing an investment portfolio, to the problem of organizing a soccer team - because that is the business and problem of AGI. Crossing and integrating domains. Any and all domains. There should be a truly general culture. What I see is actually a narrow culture, (even if AGI-ers are much more broadly educated than most), that only discusses a very limited set of problems, which are, in the final analysis, hard to distinguish from those of narrow AI - and a culture which refuses to consider any problems outside its intellectual/ professional comfort zone,
