Artificial General Intelligence is Nowhere Close To Being a Reality – Three decades ago, David Rumelhart, Geoffrey Hinton, and Ronald Williams wrote about a foundational weight-calculating technique — backpropagation — in a monumental paper titled Learning Representations by Back-propagating Errors. Backpropagation, aided by increasingly cheaper, more robust computer hardware, has enabled monumental leaps in computer vision, natural language processing, machine translation, …
