It wouldn’t surprise me if Chinese researchers do beat American researchers in the quest to develop the best AI.

But I think the first AGI that emerges will be SingularityNET. I sincerely hope it is the first AGI anyway.

Have you heard of SingularityNET? This project aims to provide narrow AIs with a way to share information with one another. It has an associated crypto called the AGI token. The reason I hope it’s the first is because anyone can own some of it. If SingularityNET does take off it will mean that the power of AGI belongs to humanity, rather than China, the US, Google, Facebook or Amazon. If you haven’t seen it yet you should definitely check it out.
