Fast Track to AGI: So, What’s the Big Deal? - Ray Schroeder, Inside Higher Ed

Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a term that elicits fear in some experts who cite far-ranging human consequences, and eager anticipation among those who see the potential for human progress. We see glimmers of the AGI capabilities in autoGPT and agentGPT. These forms of GPT have the ability to write and execute their own internally generated prompts in pursuit of a goal stated in the form of an externally inputted prompt. Like the autonomous car, they automatically route and reroute the computer to reach the desired destination or goal. Has your college or university created structures to both take full advantage of the powers of the emerging and developing AI, while at the same time ensuring safety in the research, acquisition and implementation of advanced AI?
