Original question by @BalakeKarbon@lemmy.ml

It seems like a lot of professionals are thinking we will reach AGI within my lifetime. Some credible sources say within 5 years but who knows.

Either way I suspect it is inevitable. Who knows what may follow. Infinite wealth gap growth, mass job loss, post-work reforms, I’m not sure.

A bunch of questions bounce around in my head, examples may be:

  • Will private property rights be honored in said future?
  • Could Amish communities still exist?
  • Is it something we can prepare for as individuals?

I figured it is important to talk about seeing as it will likely occur in my lifetime and many of yours.

    I don’t think we will be able to achieve AGI with anything other than an absolute accident. We don’t understand our own brains enough to create one from scratch.

      What makes you think a human brain has anything to do with general intelligence? Have you ever talked to people with a human brain?

        I have talked to many people. All have demonstrated having a human brain with varying degrees of intelligence.
