Comment by Peter Voss

The original vision of AI was re-articulated in 2002 via the term “Artificial General Intelligence” or AGI. This vision is to build “Thinking Machines” - computer systems that can learn, reason, and solve problems similar to the way humans do. […] While several large-scale efforts have nominally been working on AGI (most notably DeepMind), the field of pure focused AGI development has not been well funded or promoted. This is surprising given the fantastic value that true AGI can bestow on humanity. AI Unverifiable source (2023)

Verification History

AI Unverifiable Quote attributed to Peter Voss from arXiv paper 2308.03598 "Why We Don't Have AGI Yet" (August 2023, co-authored with Mladjan Jovanovic). WebFetch on arxiv.org source URL returned HTTP 403. Web search confirms verbatim phrases: "The original vision of AI was re-articulated in 2002 via the term 'Artificial General Intelligence' or AGI," "build 'Thinking Machines'," and "the field of pure focused AGI development has not been well funded or promoted." Year 2023 is correct. Vote "for" "Build artificial general intelligence" perfectly aligns with Voss's well-documented AGI advocacy (he was one of the people who coined "AGI" in 2002 with Shane Legg and Ben Goertzel).
