Is AGI even possible? I am skeptical of that. I think they can get really good at many tasks and when used by a human expert in a field you can save lots of time and supervise and change things here and there, like sculpting.

But I doubt we will ever see a fully autonomous, reliable AGI system.



Ultimately, what drives human creativity? I'd say it's at least partially rooted in emotion and desire. Desire to live more comfortably; fear of failure or death; desire for power/influence, etc... AI is void of these things, and thus I believe we will never truly reach AGI.


No, AGI is not possible. It is perpetually defined as just beyond current capabilities.
