AGI Redefined by OpenAIs Profit Targets - A report reveals an agreement between Microsoft and OpenAI that defines the achievement of artificial general intelligence (AGI) when OpenAI's AI systems generate $100 billion in profits, which deviates from the traditional AGI definition. Financially burdened, OpenAI predicts losses until 2029. Under the deal, Microsoft retains access to OpenAI's technology until AGI is officially declared, preventing OpenAI from prematurely claiming AGI status and excluding Microsoft.
Speculation about OpenAI's o3 model highlights ongoing debates on the potential and definitions of AGI, despite profitability challenges. This arrangement underlines the shifting criteria for AGI recognition, reflecting both financial and technological considerations. The partnership indicates that traditional benchmarks for AGI are evolving, influenced by practical financial outcomes rather than purely theoretical milestones.
