How are you defining AGI?

11mo

@MugaSofer In general, I think AGI can be defined as artificial intelligence with a human-level or greater capability that can apply its intelligence to general problems and situations independently.

For the purpose of this market, I think it's best to leave the definition to the time of resolution. Meaning that if/when someone claims that AGI exists and the question should be resolved, the polls (or similar) ask both if AGI exists and if the relevant statements are true.

This is a market with no set resolution, where a lot of results cause Manifold and/or its users to no longer exist to win their bets.

@NathanF While it's true that the market may never resolve, I don't think any of the answers would necessarily mean Manifold or its users would no longer exist. I think all possible resolutions for this market (given the currently existing answers) could theoretically be true while Manifold and its users survive. Even if AGI exists and is not friendly to humans, for example, it doesn't necessarily mean it would exterminate all Manifold users or destroy Manifold.

What are sweepstakes markets?
There are two types of markets on Manifold: play money and sweepstakes.
By default all markets are play money and use mana. These markets allow you to win more mana but do not award any prizes which can be cashed out.
Selected markets will have a sweepstakes toggle. These require sweepcash to participate and allow winners to withdraw any sweepcash won to real money.
As play money and sweepstakes markets are independent of each other, they may have different odds even though they share the same question and comments.
