The Battle for AGI: Two Former Partners, Two Competing Visions

Read Original

This article analyzes the divergent strategic visions for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) held by former DeepMind partners Demis Hassabis (CEO of Google DeepMind) and Mustafa Suleyman (CEO of Microsoft AI). It contrasts Hassabis's view of AGI as a scientific instrument for breakthroughs in fields like materials science and medicine with Suleyman's focus on creating a controllable, accountable, and broadly diffused economic engine. The piece delves into their philosophical split on governance, control, and the ultimate purpose of superintelligent systems.
