  • This is a summit replay of the session that took place on the Robotics Stage during the AI for Good Global Summit in Geneva, Switzerland from 6 to 7 July, 2023.

    As we transition from the era of task-specific Narrow AIs to the next phase of Artificial General Intelligences, it’s important that our early-stage AGI systems are not only focused on compassionate tasks involving close interactions with diverse humans, but also that the infrastructure and architectures of these AGIs embody principles of diversity.   Cognitive architectures that integrate representations and algorithms from multiple paradigms, such as neural-symbolic systems, provide a more robust foundation for understanding the richness of human value systems across various contexts.   Decentralized infrastructures that (using blockchain and other tools) avoid giving excessive power to any specific parties provide arenas in which a breadth of AI agents can compete, cooperate and coalesce into emergent networks, incorporating ideas and values from all aspects of global human society and culture.   Via pursuing this sort of approach rather than e.g. single-architecture, single-company avenues toward AGI, we can maximize both the intelligence and the wisdom and human benefit of the AGI systems we create and educate.
