It's how I would imagine it.
The gradualism would be an inherent component of any plan.
It's just a question of what is the first thing that you get out of the door.
That's number one.
Number two, I also think, you know, I believe you have advocated for continual learning more than other people.
And I actually think that this is an important and correct thing.
And here is why.
So one of the things, so I'll give you another example of how thinking, how language affects thinking.
And in this case, this will be two words, two words that have shaped everyone's thinking, I maintain.
First word, AGI.
Second word, pre-training.
Let me explain.
So the word, the term AGI, why does this term exist?
It's a very particular term.
Why does it exist?
There's a reason.
The reason that the term AGI exists is, in my opinion, not so much because it's like a very important essential descriptor of some end state of intelligence, but
Because it is a reaction to a different term that existed, and the term is narrow AI.
If you go back to ancient history of game-playing AI, of checkers AI, chess AI, computer games AI, everyone would say, look at this narrow intelligence.
Sure, the chess AI can beat Kasparov, but it can't do anything else.
