  1. It not being expensive or complex is a major assumption tbh I mean humans require farms of food to run the more advanced the computer is usually the bigger and more expensive to run till they eventually become chips so logically if AGI first happens it would be a giant computer run by a company or govt

having used a lot of Stable Diffusion and LLMs locally on old hardware, I don't think it's going to take a supercomputer, just the right set of libraries/implementations/optimizations

Ok I get your optimism but simulating the human brain and neural connections which we think will be the way to AGI is nowhere near as simple as algorithmic language models used to generate images to point it’s an insult……human brain is like billions times more complex you can generate an image with your imagination right now……we would need a huge breakthrough in AI and full or partial understanding of our brain

taking a systems approach you do not need to know how the human brain works and the recent results show that we are closer than more people realize. Certainly not billions of times more complex.

Carmack was correct when he said that AGI will be 10k's lines of code, not millions. Brains aren't that special.

You do not need the brain for technical intelligence and computing and stuff like that by its definitely not gonna be human or being like which collapses everything singularity following think will happen

I don't think 'human level' means human brain, but consciousness and 'being-hood' should be doable.

"human brains are an RNN running on biological substrate" - Carmack

At least that what me and a bunch of other people are working towards :)
