#AI#AGI#Racism#ML#IQ: "The fact that this specific person has now appeared twice in prominent papers relating to AGI is a black mark on the entire concept and should prompt some philosophical soul searching on the part of those who are optimistic about AGI’s possibility. Unfortunately, I have no confidence in the current machine learning world to do that introspection and I suspect this uncritical mindset is what led to Gottfredson’s name re-surfacing in 2023.
Virtually all proposed theories relating to AGI and its development rely on simplified, quantifiable representations of intelligence. This leads AGI researchers to gravitate towards metrics like IQ, along with all the historical baggage that comes with the use of those metrics. Sadly, these same AGI researchers are a group that is seemingly allergic to the humanities and are unlikely to have awareness of that baggage."
