Ben Goertzel, founder of the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance, argues that his AGI project, OpenCog Hyperon, exhibits early signs of self-awareness. Unlike large language models like GPT, Hyperon functions as an autonomous agent with its own goals and awareness of itself and others. Goertzel believes OpenAI avoided releasing similar autonomous AI due to regulatory risks, emphasizing that decentralized AI systems can advance without such constraints.

OpenCog Hyperon aims to surpass human-level general intelligence
The paper outlines the OpenCog Hyperon framework, which seeks to achieve Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) at the human level and beyond. It builds on prior OpenCog systems but incorporates new designs in software architecture and AI algorithms for better scalability. Hyperon emphasizes cognitive synergy, self-modification, and decentralized execution using blockchain technology, positioning it as a flexible platform for AGI development that may surpass human cognitive capacities.

OpenCog Hyperon introduces a scalable framework for advanced AGI research
OpenCog Hyperon is a cutting-edge platform designed for the development of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). It focuses on creating cognitive synergies, allowing the system to self-modify and operate in a decentralized environment. By leveraging modern AI techniques and blockchain technology, Hyperon aims to surpass human cognitive abilities, laying the groundwork for autonomous and scalable AGI solutions.
Early-stage AGIs develop as native inhabitants of the metaverse
Neoterics are a population of early-stage AGIs (Artificial General Intelligences) designed to evolve within the metaverse. These digital entities, developed under the SingularityNET framework, are intended to interact with both humans and other AGIs, gradually learning and gaining intelligence. The project envisions Neoterics as the foundation for creating a robust AGI society that will eventually contribute to real-world problem-solving and innovation.
