AGI can solve the human world’s problems. Perhaps not all of them, but all the biggest ones.
Right now life is hell.
You and your loved ones have a 100% chance of dying from cancer, unless your heart or brain kills you first, or perhaps a human-driven vehicle or an auto-immune disease gets there soonest.
And you’re poor. You’re unimaginably resource-constrained, given all the free energy and unused matter you’re surrounded by 24/7/365.
And you’re ignorant as heck. There’s all this knowledge your people have compiled and you’ve only made like 0.1% of the possible connections within what you already have in front of you.
Even just solving for these 3 things is enough to solve “all” the world’s problems, for some definitions of “all”.
