Description
Artificial General Intelligence by Julian Togelius explores how to create AI capable of general intelligence and what such technology would mean for society. Narrowly specific AI systems excel in particular areas, but human intelligence differs in its ability to tackle a variety of tasks beyond their original scope. Togelius examines technical approaches to developing more general artificial intelligence, including foundation models through self-supervised learning and open-ended learning in virtual environments. He also investigates the potential implications of such technology, including whether it would be conscious and how it might alter society. This book delves into the possibilities and challenges of creating a more intelligent AI system, encouraging readers to consider its potential impact on human civilization.
