AGI may be the rabbit we’re trying to pull out of the magician’s hat, but it’s a trick that’s far from finished. In this episode, host Emily Laird unpacks the dazzling advancements in AI, from GPT-4’s impressive mimicry to DeepMind’s Swiss Army knife of systems, Gato. But it’s not all smooth sailing—training costs, energy guzzling, and a serious lack of common sense are just a few of the hurdles. We’ll explore moonshot solutions like neuromorphic hardware and teaching AI how to teach itself. It’s a messy, fascinating ride into the science of tomorrow.
