There is going to be a point where AGI starts spreading like fire. I think it's sooner than later. Shit is going to go bananas

Like, for the first time in a long time my in laws have started to take me seriously. When I was telling them about this stuff 5 years ago (!)

It's weirdly vindicating to hear others that I've been warning finally take me seriously. Like yep, I was right

But also concerning

It's an open secret that AGI is here. When the rest of the populace actually really updates on this, I'm worried about the mass spiritual reaction. I have been doing 5 years (which is relatively late..) of serious processing. They are going to need to do it in an instant

Here is an example of what I mean. Right around the o1 public releases, I said that AGI was already here. People didn't really take it too seriously. It was along the lines of "alright, I'm calling it, it's AGI"

Guys. It's AGI. You haven't noticed?

@tszzl Is the marketing strategy just packaging the prompts for each vertical well?
