Build artificial general intelligence

Our main focus is to build truly recursive, self-improving superintelligence at scale, which means that the entire process of ideation, implementation, and validation of research ideas would be automatic.

Developing superintelligence is not like playing Russian roulette; it is more like undergoing risky surgery for a condition that will otherwise prove fatal. [...] Models incorporating safety progress, temporal discounting, quality-of-life differentia...

Yeah, I think those systems would be right on the boundary. So I think most emergent systems, cellular automata, things like that could be model-able by a classical system. You just sort of do a forward simulation of it and it’d probably be efficient...

OpenAI is not a normal company and never will be. Our mission is to ensure that artificial general intelligence (AGI) benefits all of humanity. When we started OpenAI, we did not have a detailed sense for how we were going to accomplish our mission. ...

In my (currently) preferred version of a CERN for AI, an initially small but steadily growing coalition of companies and countries would: * Collaborate on designing and building highly secure chips and datacenters; * Collaborate on accelerating ...

So when people predict a high degree of existential risk from AGI, I don’t actually think “arguing back” on their chosen terms is the correct response. Radical agnosticism is the correct response, where all specific scenarios are pretty unlikely. Non...

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. […] Wh...

It’s just a matter of the implications of continually making progress in building more and more intelligent machines. Any progress, it doesn’t have to be Moore’s law, it just has to be continued progress, will ultimately deliver us into relationship ...

I’m going to work on artificial general intelligence (AGI). [...] I should be working on it.

As a human being situated in this specific species, place, and time, I care a lot about the condition of all of us humans. And so, I would like to not only create a powerful general intelligence, but create one which is going to be beneficial to huma...

I think we can all agree already now that we should aspire to build AGI that doesn't overpower us, but that empowers us. And think of the many various ways that can do that, whether that's from my side of the world of autonomous vehicles. I'm persona...

OpenAI’s mission is to ensure that artificial general intelligence (AGI)—by which we mean highly autonomous systems that outperform humans at most economically valuable work—benefits all of humanity. We will attempt to directly build safe and benefic...

Well, I’ll tell you anyway: personally, I’m not worried. I have been trying to build something capable of replacing me since the 1980s, because I consider that effort exciting and fascinating, and because I believe that it’s the natural next step for...

Because ultimately I'm a Cosmist. I think humanity should build artilects - gods. To choose never to do such a thing, would be a tragic mistake, I feel. We are too limited to be much as humans, but artilects have no limits. They could be as magnifice...

Does this mean that machines will replace us? I don't feel that it makes much sense to think in terms of "us" and "them." I much prefer the attitude of Hans Moravec of Carnegie-Mellon University, who suggests that we think of those future intelligent...

Our vision is personal superintelligence. AI that knows you, your goals, your interests, and helps you with whatever you're focused on doing. It serves you, whoever you are, wherever you are.

[...] Our long term vision is to build general intelligence, open source it responsibly, and make it widely available so everyone can benefit. We’re bringing our two major AI research efforts (FAIR and GenAI) closer together to support this. We’re cu...

After almost a decade, I have made the decision to leave OpenAI. [...] I'm confident that OpenAI will build AGI that is both safe and beneficial.

I'm much more focused on the benefits to all of us. I am haunted by the fact that the industrial revolution didn't touch the parts of the world where I grew up until much later. So I am looking for the thing that may be even bigger than the industria...

MAGIC [...] an international organization mandated towards safe AI development. [...] It would be illegal for other entities to independently pursue AGI development.

I think when one day we are on the brink of discovering AGI, [...] we will want to do it, but it will be imperative to tweak our laws, including our laws about education, to make sure that the AGIs that we make will not evolve into enemies of civilis...

I tentatively think that an international AGI project is feasible and desirable. [...] My favourite version of an international AGI project is loosely modelled on Intelsat, an international project that developed the first global satellite communicat...

I hope that we will reach AGI and ASI superintelligence someday, maybe within our lifetimes, maybe within the next few decades or hundreds of years, we’ll see how long it takes. Even AI has to obey the laws of physics, so I think physics will place l...

[…] there is enormous positive potential otherwise we wouldn’t develop it. AI can invent new medicines. Uh, you can have AI doctors providing billions of people around the world with much, much better healthcare than what people receive today. I’m n...

Perhaps the most ambitious scientific quest in human history is the creation of general artificial intelligence, which roughly means AI that is as smart or smarter than humans. The dominant approach in the machine learning community is to attempt to ...

The survival of man depends on the early construction of an ultra-intelligent machine. In order to design an ultraintelligent machine we need to understand more about the human brain or human thought or both. In the following pages an attempt is made...

This is going to be the most productive decade in the history of our species. But in order to truly reap the benefits of AI, we need to learn how to contain it. Paradoxically, part of that will mean collectively saying no to certain forms of progress...

I call on the governments of the world to take immediate action to end this danger by permanently banning the development of artificial general intelligence and machine superintelligence.

A better tech future moves from artificial general intelligence to augmented collective intelligence, where AI amplifies rather than replaces human agency.

The development of full artificial general intelligence – what we will call here AI that is "outside the Gates" – would be a fundamental shift in the nature of the world: by its very nature it means adding a new species of intelligence to Earth with ...

The concept of superintelligence is built on a flawed premise. The idea is that once you have an intelligence that is as good or better than humans — in other words, AGI — then that intelligence can improve itself, leading to a runaway effect. This i...

I actually do not think it's a foregone conclusion that we will build AGI [artificial general intelligence] machines that can outsmart us all. Not because we can't … but rather we might just not want to. So why are obsessing about trying to build so...

We haven’t lost until we have lost. We still have a great chance to do it right and we can have a great future. We can use narrow AI tools to cure aging, an important problem and I think we are close on that front. Free labor, physical and cognitive,...

Trying to ‘build’ AGI is an inherently unsafe practice. Build well-scoped, well-defined systems instead. Don’t attempt to build a God.

Many researchers steeped in these issues, including myself, expect that the most likely result of building a superhumanly smart AI, under anything remotely like the current circumstances, is that literally everyone on Earth will die. Not as in “maybe...

Once you start to make machines that are rivalling and surpassing humans with intelligence, it's going to be very difficult for us to survive.

The development of full artificial intelligence (AI) could spell the end of the human race.

How soon could such an intelligent robot be built? The coming advances in computing power seem to make it possible by 2030. And once an intelligent robot exists, it is only a small step to a robot species—to an intelligent robot that can make evolved...

This is our nuclear moment. Rapid AI advancement represents one of history’s most consequential and dangerous technological shifts. We demand that politicians and companies pause AGI development until international safety agreements are established. ...

This scale is unnecessary. You do not need this scale of AI and compute to realize the benefits. Indeed, if we really want AI to be broadly beneficial, we urgently need to shift away from this approach. [...] The kinds of AI systems that dominate our...

If I can only convey one thing about AI: Companies are racing to develop AIs that will outcompete humans at everything. Not just "jobs" but also politics, strategy, persuasion, influence. If anyone builds a country of geniuses in a datacenter, those ...

Tech CEOs, futurists, and venture capitalists describe artificial general intelligence (AGI) as if it were an inevitable and ultimate goal for technology development. In reality, the term is a vague signifier for a technology that will somehow lead t...

For me, AI should be grounded and centred on the person and how to best help the person. But for a lot of people, it's grounded and centred on the technology. [...] The AGI thing, the AGI narrative, sidesteps that, and instead actually puts forward t...

Because you're saying like well one, these things are not climate friendly to begin with, right, so like how dare you even put it in the same camp. Two, it's okay to unsettle humanness and if you actually listen to people who you know like uh people ...

If you think building AGI is okay, like anthropic should just be allowed to build AGI or whatever. And then, okay, you should state that clearly. And then people who don't think that's okay, should also state that clearly. And they should have the co...
