Artificial general intelligence (AGI) — in other words, systems that could successfully perform any intellectual task that a human can. Not in my lifetime, not in this millennium. Possibly in the year 2,300. Weird way to blow $20 million.
You have some catching up to do. Consensus is dropping to this lifetime for sure, if not this decade.

In the companies I've seen that are funded by the founder directly, the founder winds up with an unhealthy (actually, toxic) personalization of the company. It quite literally belongs to him, and he treats the employees accordingly.

You are probably right, but if anyone can make a dent Carmak is the person.
Recent Carmack YouTube interview with him saying the code for AGI will be simple: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xLi83prR5fg

what consensus? i think most researchers remain skeptical
You can argue they're wrong, but there is absolutely a general consensus that AGI is going to be this generation.
