Sutskever: "You can call it (a coup), and I can understand why you chose this word, but I disagree with this. This was the board doing its duty to the mission of the nonprofit, which is to make sure that OpenAI builds AGI that benefits all of humanity." Scoop: theinformation.com

That "the most important company in the world" bit is so out of touch with reality.

Imagine the hubris.

I'd argue they are the closest to AGI (how far off that is no one knows). That would make them a strong contender for the most important company in the world in my book.

AGI without a body is just a glorified chatbot that is dependant on available, human provided resources.

To create true AGI, you would need to make the software aware of its surroundings and provide it with a way to experience the real world.

AGI with agent architectures (ie giving the AI access to APIs) will be bonkers.

An AI without a body, but access to every API currently hosted on the internet, and the ability to reason about them and compose them… that is something that needs serious consideration.

It sounds like you’re dismissing it because it won’t fit the mold of sci-fi humanoid-like robots, and I think that’s a big miss.
