Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

Nothing dominates.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

Everything plus 20%.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

Right.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

Interesting.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

This is like roughly what I've seen.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

So I guess I have two answers to that.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

Number one, I'm almost tempted to, like, reject the question entirely because, again, like, I see this as an extension of computing.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

Have we talked about, like, how to chart progress in computing or how do you chart progress in computing since 1970s or whatever?

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

What is the x-axis?

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

So I kind of feel like the whole question is kind of, like, funny from that perspective a little bit.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

But I will say, I guess, like, when people talk about AI and the original AGI and how we spoke about it when we – when OpenAI started –

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

AGI was a system you can go to that can do any task that is economically valuable, any economically valuable task at human performance or better.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

Okay.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

So that was the definition.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

And I was pretty happy with that at the time.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

And I kind of feel like I've stuck to that definition forever.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

And then people have made up all kinds of other definitions.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

But I feel like I like that definition.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

Now, number one, the first concession that people make all the time is they just take out all the physical stuff because we're just talking about digital knowledge work.

Dwarkesh Podcast
Andrej Karpathy β€” AGI is still a decade away

I feel like that's a pretty major concession compared to the original definition, which was like any task a human can do.
