We can do it now, albeit very poorly. I'd imagine in 5 years we will have close to perfect mimicry of anybody's voice given enough sampling.

You highly underestimate pace of progress

Can you explain this to me? Persuade me that it'll happen in less than 5 years. It seems insane to me, but I'm not well educated enough on it.

Just imagine how many people work on it. How they want to be the first to create AGI. And their number quickly increase.

Imagine how right now many new models are being trained on GPUs. Moore's law still works. Hardware becomes better and better.

We've already recreated many brain's algorithms (art, speech, face recognition, driving and many more). All that's left is to teach a machine how to learn by itself.

And by the way, we already can copy singer's voice, read other comments

That makes sense. Thanks.

Do you think it'll rapidly help with things like CRISPR gene editing as well?

If AGI is benevolent, it will help with everything.

All things that may increase intelligence, like neurointerfaces, gene editing and maybe unknown drugs, are other ways to singularity. Everything is connected. That's why the progress is exponential. Thought AI way seems the most possible to me
