Will AI soon surpass the human brain? If you ask employees at OpenAI, Google DeepMind and other large tech companies, it is inevitable. However, researchers at Radboud University and other institutes show new proof that those claims are overblown and unlikely to ever come to fruition. Their findings are published in Computational Brain & Behavior today.

Meh. It's not a problem of scale. It's a problem of we have no idea how the fuck to do that. Scaling up existing techniques is neither necessary nor sufficient.

Right on the money. One of the big things with AI safety is "we have no fucking clue how AGI can originate so we are constantly in the dark." If we ever did create it, we likely would not immediately know it was AGI, and that creation could go very terribly in a number of ways.
