I agree with that to the extent that "theoretical advances" could address the
philosophical objections I am making. But until those are dealt with,
experimentation is a waste of time and money.
If I was talking about how to build faster-than-lightspeed travel, you would
want to know how I plan to overcome theoretical limitations. You wouldn't fund
experimentation on that until those objections on principle had been dealt with.

Let me put it this way: I would think anyone in a position to offer funding for
this kind of work would require good answers to the above.

My view is a little different. I think these answers are going to come out of
a combination of theoretical advances with lessons learned via experimenting
with early-stage AGI systems, rather than being arrived at in-advance based on
pure armchair theorization...
