I agree, monkeys can't predict so great what humans would do, though may get some predictions very close to accurate. Humans same, we may focus on AGIs like monkeys focus on humans, although we do know they'll think and move incredibly faster, have more memory, cooperate better, can swap bodies, will clone a adult AGI brain then differentiate it into a team, will make nanobot hardware, etc (all are immortality improvers). Perhaps it's like: i have an idea, here's the full blueprint to make a train, now lets build it. We can know ahead.

AGI scares the Chinese gov't and that's part of why there's no Chinese analogue of Deep Mind or OpenAI at this point. Yes interesting question. You know, maybe USA has more innovation because they are allowed to mutate freely against society. There's always a minority that are worse, and better, mutants. I don't leave my door often before cv19, and no one no where conforms my research towards AGI. I've become extremely different understanding our universe, though still rational/ friendly. I still had to follow others work, but I made sure to not fall trapped and to be sure everything makes sense synergyly. ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/Tf065676fd779dd5c-Madd575c5ba9f03cf4c32ec4a Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
