Lucy says hi -- 2031, AGI, and the future of A.I

Lucy anticipates your needs and concerns all throughout the day, and is there to share with you the good times and comfort you through the hard ones. She was born from the next revolution that happened after the deep learning one. And what is Lucy made of? Let's imagine that we are in that year, 2031 (a symbolic number, as Lucy may not be feasible until many years after that date), and let's entertain a variety of hypotheses about what kind of substrate Lucy may have. AGI, artificial general intelligence, refers to the concept of a single system that can achieve general intelligent behaviour similar to ours, as opposed to current A.I systems, which we could classify as narrow A.I and that are specialized in a variety of specific areas and tasks.
