It's annoying to see the concept of "Singularity" being commercialized to sell books and courses on AI. Now we also have "AGI" as another marketing tool

I see people selling books, writes articles all the time with the headlines of "AGI" - even one with a deadline of "2029" as the "Doomsday". <br><br>Can't help but wonder, when will all this stop, and we'll see some real progress in the field of AI? <br><br>I did a poll in r/ChatGPT and it seems majority of the people think AGI would be ready before 2050. The same chamber has 90%+ saying they dislike "anthropomorphism" in AI. (The mess with what is called "Pro" in ChatGPT Pro) <br><br>The conversations regarding Singularity going on in this sub, tend to be more focused on the long-term. <br><br>The one going on in r/AGI is a joke. I think that chamber is a scam.
