agi general-intelligence predictions poll chatgpt timeline

Summary

A Reddit poll asks whether users feel more or less optimistic about achieving AGI by 2026 (or 2030) compared to after ChatGPT's 2022 launch, referencing Wikipedia's definition of AGI.

ChatGPT launched in November 2022. Now that we're approaching halfway through 2026, do you feel more or less optimistic about achieving AGI by 2026 than you did at the release of ChatGPT? Edit: I forgot to mention, I'm going off of Wikipedia's definition of AGI. Namely, an AI or collection of AIs which can outperform humans in nearly all cognitive areas.
