I think that any paper that argues something is impossible is fundamentally flawed, particularly when there are examples of it being possible.

Also, what's the point of telling others you believe what they are doing is impossible, specially after the results we are seeing even at the free-tier, open-to-the-public services?



You might want to check out the works of that buzzkill that Gödel is ^^

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6del%27s_incompleteness_...

" The first incompleteness theorem states that no consistent system of axioms whose theorems can be listed by an effective procedure (i.e. an algorithm) is capable of proving all truths about the arithmetic of natural numbers. For any such consistent formal system, there will always be statements about natural numbers that are true, but that are unprovable within the system.

The second incompleteness theorem, an extension of the first, shows that the system cannot demonstrate its own consistency. "

Please explain why do you believe this is relevant to the points I've made.


It argues of “impossibilities” and also proves it.


I think you need to read it again.


Gödel wrote his teorem to test David Hilbert’s endeavor, Logic and the Foundation of Mathematics[0], to unify mathematics. Gödel proved that it is impossible to do.

But you may have a different version of history.

What examples are there of the possibility of artificial general intelligence?
