Harvard Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation’s Post

If we are a long way short of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), why worry about it now? In a new Ash Center policy brief, Seth Lazar and Alex Pascal argue that the people building the most advanced AI systems are explicitly and aggressively working to bring AGI about, and they think they’ll get there in two to five years. Even some of the most publicly skeptical AI researchers don’t rule out AGI within this decade. If we, the affected public, do not actively shape this agenda now, we may miss the chance to do so at all. We face a fundamental question: is the very pursuit of AGI the kind of aim democracies should allow? Read the paper here ⤵️ https://lnkd.in/eE6piYcx
