我们常问：AGI 什么时候到来？你有没有想过，可能它已经来了。 最近，红杉资本合伙人 Pat Grady、Sonya Huang 联合发表了一篇博客，指出 AGI 已经到来，就在此刻。 机器之心编辑部 在他们看来，AGI 不需要一个玄乎的技术定义 —— 它的本质就是「能把事情搞清楚的能力」。而以 Claude Code 为代表的长周期智能体，正是这种能力的第一批 例证。 文中举了一个例子：一位创始人让智能体帮他找一个开发者关系负责人。智能体先在 LinkedIn 上搜索，发现职位头衔说明不了问题；于是转向 YouTube 找技术演 讲，筛选出互动数据亮眼的演讲者；再与 Twitter 交叉比对，找出真正有品味、有粉丝的人；然后检查谁最近发帖变少了 —— 这往往意味着对现职的倦怠；最后锁 定一位刚经历公司裁员、专业方向完全匹配的候选人，起草了一封精准的挖角邮件。 全程 31 分钟。 没有人告诉它该怎么做，它自己形成假设、验证、碰壁、转向，直到找到答案。这就是「把事情搞清楚」。而长周期智能体已经具备了这种能力。 更令人振奋的是，他们给出了一条清晰的指数曲线：长周期智能体的能力每 7 个月翻一番。按此推算，2028 ...

I remembered a lot of this, but here is a part I had forgotten:"Elon said he wanted to accumulate $80B for a self-sustaining city on Mars, and that he needed and deserved majority equity. He said that he needed full control since he’d been burned by not having it in the past, and when we discussed succession he surprised us by talking about his children controlling AGI."I appreciate people saying what they want and think it enables people to resolve things (or not). But Elon saying he wants the above is imp ...
