If we want AI models that are always learning, we'll need the equivalent of neuroplasticity for artificial neural networks.
Not saying it will be easy or straightforward. There's still a lot we don't know!
That is the end goal after all, but all the potential VCs seem to forget that almost every conceivable outcome of real AGI involves the current economic system falling to pieces.
Which is sorta weird. It is like if VCs in Old Regime france started funding the revolution.
And for your comparison, they did fund the American revolution which on its turn was one of the sparks for the French revolution (or was that exactly the point you were making?)
