People are treating it like artificial general intelligence

Exactly. And people seem to think that we are close to AGI. We ain’t. AGI is many decades away.

Tbh, for our generation i don’t think it even matters, since we ain’t getting there anyway. These exoplanets are 10’s if not 100’s of lightyears away and theres no guarantee that any of them are even habitable.

Even for getting to proxima centuari, 4.2 lightyears away and the nearest star to earth, the most optimistic thing I’ve heard is “we could maybe get the travel time down to 80 years if (and big if) we travel at 10% lightspeed”.

Now imagine how we’re going to get to an exoplanet even 30 lightyears away.

The reality is our generation was simply born too early for many of the things talked about in futurist circles.

AI is on an exponential growth path.

Prove it. I would love to be wrong, but it doesn’t seem that way
