A former OpenAI researcher, Leopold Asch, has published a detailed 165-page report claiming that Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) could be realized by 2027 if the company prioritizes security over developing shiny products. The researcher, who was fired by OpenAI, outlines the potential trajectory of AI development and emphasizes the need for a focus on safety. This comes amid growing discussions within the AI community about the timeline for achieving AGI, with some insiders, including OpenAI engineer James Betker, suggesting it could happen as soon as 2027, while others estimate a longer timeframe.
Been a big week for OpenAI insiders making arguments that AGI is coming in 2027.
