The solution to agi is not deep learning maybe with more compute and shit load of engineering it can work kind of baby agi.
My bet will be on something else than gradient descent and backprop but really I don't wish any company or country to reach agi or any sophisticated ai ...
Magical thinking. Nature uses gradient descent to evolve all of us and our companions on this planet. If something better were out there, we would see it at work in the natural world.
Are you also saying that thoughts are formed using gradient descent? I don't think gradient descent is an accurate way to describe either process in nature. Also, we don't know that we "see" everything that is happening, we don't even understand the brain yet.
