But "Brockman says he personally believes OpenAI has reached AGI, while leaving users to decide whether Astra meets that definition." Says it all.
I'll know we've reached AGI when they don't release an API for the model selling access for a few bucks per task. Seems like AGI would be worth more than that.

#134I think they embargoed the news, and then they failed to put up their own blog post synchronized to the scheduled news releases, probably because of the outages they're having today. Reuters announced at 2.03pm and at 2.40pm still no blog post. All the news articles say that OpenAI announced it in a blog post, of course. All the love to the folks at OpenAI scrambling to get this out right now! Edit: HN user codergaut…
FT is claiming... that Open AI is claiming...its AGI... "ChatGPT maker claims its ‘Astra’ could be considered ‘artificial general intelligence’" - https://www.ft.com/content/55ab40c0-59e2-4c0b-97c9-4f4f5a71a...

Shows the weirdness of online journalism. News outlets were briefed about an upcoming event and pre-wrote and scheduled articles. When the time came they were all triggered. Except...the event didn't actually happen.
Presumably this sort of thing was rampant pre-internet? News outlets would _have_ to receive embargoed information so that they could publish papers on time. I believe government budgets are a good example of this happening. I think the weird shift was when online journalism started, and live reactions became the norm, no?

It also has to do something naughty, preferably in a menacing swarm.
Honestly I find these cavalier statements to be in incredibly poor taste. Unless you are completely blind it's obvious that AI is the most significant piece of technology invented since the Atomic Bomb and could very well be the most important thing ever built by Humans full stop. This kind of dismissive attitude is childish and will likely lead to incredibly bad outcomes for humanity.

#140Does it mean they made 100 billion in profits? Cf. the AGI deal with Microsoft ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47921248 )
