alt Hacker NewsI recently rewatched "The Lawnmower Man" [0] and was not disappointed. The vast majority of the comments I see promoting the notion of "AI" achieving AGI sound like the Jobe Smith character from the movie.

LLM/"reasoning" models will not manifest "AGI" anytime soon, as it would take 75% of our galaxy energy output to bring the error rate to average human levels.
However, several Neuromorphic computing projects look a lot more viable, and may bring the energy consumption needs down by several orders of magnitude. =3
"Ghost in the Shell" was a far better story.
