ChatGPT's Human-Like Abilities Raise Possibility of Artificial General Intelligence

AI has evolved from early chess programs to generative AI like ChatGPT that can produce human-like text, images, etc.

Artificial general intelligence (AGI) would be like a digital person with consciousness and intelligence comparable to humans.

Many believe AGI is coming soon and could pose risks if not properly aligned with human values.

ChatGPT demonstrates that language models are Turing complete and could potentially become AGI just from the right text prompt.

Finding the prompt to unlock AGI in ChatGPT may require brilliance but is now possible for anyone, not just expert programmers.
