yEAH. Yannic seems pretty reasonable here. But also, what do compsci nerds mean by AGI"? They mean behaviour. They think they want sentience too. This is the mistake. The deep prejudices of physical materialism ("we are just meat machines velours.) . You cannot get general intelligence without conscious sentience. Computer science (and physics for that matter) have no idea about the human soul, nor even if we are nonphysical or not, it is not even a scientific question. This makes all the hype just a grift. The NerdReich.
The proper use case is to aid human functioning. This is not an unemployment story, but not in they way the techfascists think. See https://smithwillsuffice.github.io/ohanga-pai/questions/001_basic_ohangapai/ for a decent analysis of the economic impact. Democratize the Internet. It is a public good and needs public ownership, not the for-profit motive. The scientific curiosity motive is always sufficient to drive progress and innovation. I should know. A good scientist will work for peanuts and turn down lucrative Want job offers.
