Lmao these guys have really been smelling their own farts a bit too much. When is Amodei coming out with a new post telling us that AGI will be here in 6 months and it will double our lifespan?

Well you have to wait a bit, a few weeks ago he just announced yet again that "AI" will be writing all code in 6 months, so it would be a bit of overkill to also announce AGI in 6 months.

Not according to that scammy, clammy sammy:

> “We basically have built AGI, or very close to it.”[1]

At this point it seems he is not merely excited with the first results (we all were fooled by this tech in the beginning, after all), but actively disseminating falsehoods. After disseminating such claims about AGI repeatedly and spreading nonsense like using ChatGPT to get answers about how to raise a baby day-to-day, which I think no one believes he does - its a statement directed at influencing the behaviour of the so-called "normies", both him and his immediate team should be held personally criminally responsible for every instance of negative impact on human lives that these tools have caused.
