Anthropic CEO says AGI is a marketing term and the next AI milestone will be like a 'country of geniuses in a data center'
Briefly

Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, views the term artificial general intelligence (AGI) as vague and more of a marketing term. He anticipates creating advanced AI systems that outperform humans across various tasks but refrains from labeling it AGI. Instead, he envisions a future where AI acts like a 'country of geniuses in a data center,' highlighting both the power and risks involved. While many tech leaders expect progress in AGI, Amodei notes the absence of a widely accepted definition and timeline, expressing that powerful AI could emerge within the next few years.
AGI has never been a well-defined term, for me. I've always thought of it as a marketing term. But we’re gonna get to AI systems that are better than almost all humans at almost all tasks.
It's a sort of evocative phrase for all the power and all the positive things, and, you know, all of the potential negative things ... I think we're quite likely to get in the next two or three years.
